Dear Sirs,

We thank you for your letter of the 24th inst., regarding the performance of sparking plugs, apparently as fitted to cars of your manufacture.

As, however, you do not normally draw your sparking plugs from us, we are wondering if your present letter would rather more closely apply to your actual suppliers rather than ourselves.

If, however, you wish us to take further action, will you kindly state the makes and types of plugs you are fitting to your various models, and thanking you in anticipation.

Yours faithfully,
THE AC-SPHINX SPARKING PLUG CO. LTD.

FRANK A.{Mr Adams} COOPER.
SERVICE MANAGER.
