For the attention of Comdr. Matravers.

Dearsirs,

We hope that progress on the small Marles gear, which you are making for us is satisfactory, and we should be glad if you could let us know when we may expect to receive it.

You may remember that some time ago we mentioned that on the first gear of this type we had trouble due to the pin on which the roller is mounted rotating in the rockershaft. We hope you will be able to do something to prevent this happening on the new gear.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS ROYCE LTD.
