Oct. 7th.1930.

Messrs. S. Smith & Sons, Ltd.,
Birmingham Works,
173-177, Clifton Road,
Aston,
BIRMINGHAM.

For the attention of Mr. Eckford.

Dear Sirs,

Thank you for your letter of the 30th. Sept., which we have only just received.

It is almost certain that the standard filling for the thermostats will be unsuitable for any of our cars, and therefore you will have to await the results of our tests before you can proceed with the completion of our production order.

We will, however, let you have this information as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,

For Rolls-Royce Ltd.
