With reference to the difficulty experienced with the present pedal mounting of loss of movement due to the clutch pedal descending, we send herewith N. sch. 3091, shewing a proposal for mounting the pedals on the clutch pit in the same way as the 20 HP. A boss is required on the clutch pit. We have adopted the 20 HP. method of mounting the pedals in preference to the Phantom, thinking that ultimately identical pieces can be used for both cars.
