--------------------

I have read your note with considerable interest,
and thank you all for your investigations.

If you and BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} are successful in this work, and
everything points to your being so, it will save the Company
a considerable amount of money yearly.

Again many thanks.
