For the attention of Mr. Henry.

Dear Sirs,

Further to our letter of August 19th. we enclose drawing SCD.1476 showing a simplified rear shackle assembly. we should be grateful if you would inform us whether you consider this suitable for use with Harris bushes. Also, we should like schemes for using Harris bushes in both 2¼" and 2" springs, and not only 2¼" springs as stated in our last letter.

Finally, we enclose your drawings showing details of a muffled assembly which you kindly lent to us.

Yours faithfully,
for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
