John Craig Esq.
Messrs. John Craig & Co.
9, Regent Street.
S. W. 1.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your letter of the 12th instant. I am interested to hear that you are getting a measure of success from your invention in relation to variable gears. With regard to your proposition to show us your latest invention in this connection I think our best plan would be to write direct to the Company at Derby - heading your letter for the attention of Mr. Hives - meanwhile I have written to him telling him that you may do this.

Yours faithfully,
