Yorks.

For the attention of Mr. G.Hepworth.

Dear Sirs,

In accordance with the arrangements made when the writer visited you last week we are now enclosing prints of our piston ring drawings which should enable you to complete the necessary rings.

We should like you to let us know the quality of rings and type you are going to supply when we can advise our Order Office to pass you an official order.

We should be pleased if you would let us know the approximate cost of liners proof machined only and cost of rings and you will of course supply us with the specification of the liners and ring material for record purposes.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
