The Light Production Co.,

Attention Mr.C.H.Brooks.

Dear Mr. Brooks,

We are returning for your attention, six 2.5" bore pistons to our drawing RE.1821. These were recently supplied by you, complete except for final grinding. We now find that our Works are unable to carry out this operation, and would be obliged if you could grind them to one of your suitable cams, and let us have particulars for record purposes when you return the pistons.

Yours faithfully,
for ROLLS ROYCE LIMITED,
