We beg to refer you to our letter of February 23rd and trust that you have duly received the six ZII Plugs we took the liberty of sending you for testing purposes. You will no doubt have been agreeably surprised by the excellent finish of the Plugs, and we feel quite sure that your tests will bear out our Works contention that no better plugs are on the market at present. We take this opportunity of informing you that we can quote you competitive prices for all kinds of small turned precision parts, as you will see from the enclosed illustrated folder, and if you have any enquiry in this line to send us, it will be greatly appreciated. We have also a certain stock of B.A. Steel and Brass Screws in London, particulars of which you will also find in the enclosed folder, but we would mention that the prices given there are for small quantities i.e. from 1 gross upwards, whereas for larger lines we would prefer to receive your definite enquiry to quote against. Hoping to hear from you at your early convenience, we beg to remain, Yours faithfully, [Signature] [Handwritten annotations: HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}, X1812 R.{Sir Henry Royce}, DM{D.
