As explained in our earlier letter Mr. Louis Dufresne is visiting the Motor Exhibition in London on Monday the 19th inst. and will be in London for 2 or 3 days. The writer is sure that he will be pleased to meet Mr. Hardy in London if convenient, and we will make enquiries for Mr. Hardy, at the time, on your Stand at the Exhibition. Yours faithfully, For BRITISH TIMKEN LTD., [Illegible Signature] Sales Manager, Automotive Division.
