A.T. SPEEDOMETER Co. Ltd.,
Chronos Works,
North Circular Road,
LONDON, N.W.2.

Attention of Mr. ARROWSMITH.

Dear Sirs,

With reference to the recent correspondence between Mr. Robotham and Mr. Nichols concerning the bringing up to date of the speedometers on our experimental cars, we are sending under separate cover three instruments which have been withdrawn from our Stores.

The only instruments available are the Phantom III type, but since the only difference, except for calibration, is the monogram on the dial, we can, after recalibration, use them for the test. We have attached labels giving the required calibration.

We would also like you to set the mileage figures as indicated.

Three more instruments will follow as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,
