For the attention of Mr. Brooks.

Dear Sirs,

We thank you for your letter of the 12th inst..

At the present time we have Aerolite Pistons running in three of our Experimental Cars, but have not yet completed sufficient mileage to say whether they are immune from cold knocks.

We think it would be best therefore if we wrote you again in about a month's time to let you know how the Pistons have behaved, at the end of our usual endurance mileage.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
