PHANTOM II and 20/25 HP. SLIDING JOINT OF MAIN UNIVERSAL.
-----------------------------------------------------

In Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}'s report of the 4th inst. copy of which you have, you will notice that he makes the same criticisms on the leakage of oil from the sliding joint of the propeller shaft that he did on the 20/25 HP.

We take it you will be giving this matter attention in the near future. We are doing nothing at Derby.
