Dear Sirs,

Since our communication of the 17th.ult. we have heard from our Paris Depot that Mr. Seignol does not consider the gauge will be satisfactory unless we modify the baffles in the tank.

We do not consider it at all likely that we shall modify the baffles in our tank to suit the gauge but would like to know whether you consider you would be able to make a satisfactory job, if we sent one of our standard tanks, to the drawings you already have? We are holding up the tank until we hear further from you on this point.

Yours faithfully,
