We send herewith N.sch. 3347 shewing the battery box, battery, and suspension.
It will be seen that we have reverted to the tube across the frame and we suggest that if it is still possible should use this arrangement on the 20/25, as shewn in N. scheme 3334. This is because R. {Sir Henry Royce} no longer prefers the arrangement shewn on N. scheme 3332.
