Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.14/JH.4.5.37.

We return to you herewith the first set of Wraith pressed fan blades which we have tested and wish to standardise on Bentley and 25/30 H.P. cars.

Will you build this set of blades on to a Bentley hub and despatch it to Chateauroux to be fitted to 3-B-IV car.

Will you also prepare a second identical fan for 6-B-IV when it goes to France again shortly.

Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.
