8th December, 1937.

The Zenith Carburettor Co.Ltd.,
Honeypot Lane,
Stanmore,
MIDDLESEX.

For the attention of Mr.A.E.Palmer.

Dear Sirs,

Phantom III E.E.C.42.

With reference to your letter of the 1st ins.

After further investigation of the complaint of pump jet external plugs leaking, we find that this has been rather exagerated from the test Section.

In view of this we think it best to leave the matter in abeyance or until further evidence is forthcoming.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
