R.A.C. Johnson, Esq.,
Messrs. R. {Sir Henry Royce} Johnson & Nephew Limited,
Bradford Ironworks,
Forge Lane,
MANCHESTER. 11.

Dear Robert,

I am sending you, under separate cover, one shot blasted valve spring, which represents our idea of finish.

I am sorry that I have been so long, but we had not got a product on the ground with which we were satisfied.

Yours sincerely,
