Dear Sirs,

For the attention of Mr. Robotham.

We should be interested to hear from you in regard to the tests which you have recently been carrying out on the Marles-Weller Steerings, samples of which we have submitted to you in the past.

We do not appear to have heard from you on this subject for some few weeks, and we should therefore be glad to know how these tests are going.

Thanking you in anticipation, and assuring you of our best attention at all times,

We are, Yours faithfully,
for ADAMANT ENGINEERING COMPANY LIMITED.

F.{Mr Friese} Matravers
Director.
