Messrs.K.L.G.Sparking Plugs Ltd.,
Robinhood Engineering Works,
Putney Vale,
London, S.W.15.

For the attention of Major Carington.

Dear Sir,

Will you kindly let us have for E.R.Hall's Bentley another set of 12 sparking plugs of the aero type construction plug you submitted for test. We cannot quite remember the type number but you will be able to trace it correctly. Do not confuse this plug with the very hot motor cycle type of plug which you sent to us for E.R.Hall and which as explained to you was not required in this particular case.

We hope you will be able to get this plug away as quickly as possible and if you consider we should have a few more for the actual race perhaps you will kindly send them.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
