Referring to your H3/TB/18.11.22. We should like to correct your impression that the Enots Lubricators are American. The Enot Lubricator is made by Benton & Stones, Birmingham. They have been makers of lubricators and other brass fittings for 100 years.

We have already had samples of the "Ex-a-gun" and do not consider it as good as the Enots. They may, of course, have improved it since we saw it last.
