Dear Sirs, With reference to the writer's interview with Mr. Child last Friday, we would advise you that the sample headlamp bulb with Bosch cap which Mr. Child promised to send on to Rugby, has not yet come to hand. Will you very kindly let us have this as soon as possible as we are ready to cap the bulbs, and we are waiting until we have the sample so as to make quite certain as to the position of the pins. Mr. Child very kindly promised to send the sample which should be addressed for the attention of Mr. H.W. Edmundson, New Lamp Works, Messrs. B.T.H. Co. Ltd., Rugby. Yours faithfully, H.A. LINGARD.
