DERBY.

Dear Mr. West,

I have been meaning to write to you but I rather expected to see you at Hatfield the other day but I failed to do so. What did you find in connection with the experimental plugs I sent back to you? The original ones are now back on the car and the engine is running perfectly including a 1500 mile trip I have just completed on French petrol. As far as my tests went, there is not the slightest doubt that they are very much more suitable.

Yours sincerely,

GRNrinchi
