X.3458 - 40/50 H.P. CHASSIS - REAR HUB AND BRAKE.

I send you (BY) herewith a letter from Ferodo Ltd., dated 12th. inst. replying to your note BY4/P10.10.21 and EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}'s note EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}4/H6.10.21.

The graph referred to in the penultimate paragraph of said letter has not come to hand and I have written Ferodo Ltd., for same.

I have at the same time expressed regret that some unauthorised person has thought proper to write "faulty material" on the label which was attached to the Brake Linings in my office.

On arrival, the graph will be handed to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer}

Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}
