Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd,
Nightingale Road,
DERBY.

Dear Sirs,

Replying to yours of the 20th inst, EFC2/AT re the battery we recently sent you, we are sorry to hear that you are unable to obtain the capacity from this and we do not think that we shall get much further by correspondence on the matter.

If agreeable to you we should like to send down our Engineer who took the tests on the battery at Ashtead to see you if you cannot obtain the results to your satisfaction.

Would it be convenient to you if he came down next Tuesday or Wednesday.

We will defer further remarks until we hear from you about his visit, which we trust you will be able to arrange.

Yours faithfully,

THE NEW PETO & RADFORD ACCUMULATOR CO. LTD.

S.D.
GRMinchin
MANAGING DIRECTOR.
