22nd February. 1939.

Messrs. Rolls-Royce. Ltd.,
Nightingale Road,
DERBY.

For the attention of Mr. F.J. Hardy - C/O Mr. Rowbotham.

Dear Sirs,

Re: Hendon Order No. 8464.

We duly received for repair against the above order the Smithermet ex Chassis GGR-63.

Careful examination of this particular accessory revealed that the cause of the trouble was due to a slight leak in the bellows and, to give service, we have arranged to despatch to your Hendon Works a free of charge replacement under cover of packing slip S 60368.

With assurances of our very best and prompt attention on all occasions.

We remain,
Yours faithfully,
For S. SMITH & SONS (MOTOR ACCESSORIES) LTD.,

G.E. HESTER,
SERVICE MANAGER.
