Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd.,
Nightingale Road,
DERBY.

Dear Sirs,

Further to our correspondence re accumulators, we trust that the ebonite battery has now reached you and should be interested to hear what you think of it and whether you consider the capacity to be sufficient.

The writer has to be in Derby one day next week, (possibly coming up with Mr. Granville Bradshaw of A.B.C. Motors when he brings his car to be overhauled) and if convenient to you would like to call in and see you to have a talk about the accumulator question in general.

Yours faithfully,
THE NEW PETO & RADFORD ACCUMULATOR CO. LTD,

[Signature: G R N Minchin]
