Birmingham.

Dear Sirs,

For the attention of E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Milner Esq.

We think that we must have been ambiguous in our last letter. We did not mean to imply that we wanted the first batch of filter packs altered from brass to duralumin. We think that you should supply the filter packs in brass until we have obtained some more information on the duralumin packs.

Yours faithfully,
