Dear Sirs, Your Ref: Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GR.{George Ratcliffe}15/JH. With further reference to your letter of the 24th March, reference as above, the second paragraph of which reads that you will send an official order to cover the supplying of six brand new carburetters. We are wondering whether your letter of the 28th March reference ROY{Sir Henry Royce}/FS.{F. Steele}4/P in which you instruct us to increase the quantity on your Order 77844, dated 5th December, 1938, by six, refers to the letter of the 24th March, as so far we do not appear to have received a separate order from you covering the replacement of these six new carburetters, sent by you for modification to the standard Wraith requirements. We should be pleased if you could drop us a line clearing us on this point, and always at your service. We are, Yours faithfully, THE ZENITH CARBURETTER CO.LTD.
