Morse Front-End Drive - Wraith.

Dear Sirs,

We are naturally anxious to know whether we may be of any further service to you in connection with the contemplated application of our type 766, duplex chain, 3/8" pitch, 1-1/2" wide, as used by Cadillac and Lincoln, and as discussed with you both in the United States and, following the Olympia show, here in England, as also set forth in our letters of October 17th, 19th, 20th and 23rd.

Should, at this stage, a personal visit be of assistance to you, we would be very glad to arrange for our Mr. Rutter to call on you by appointment at Derby.

Yours faithfully,
THE MORSE CHAIN COMPANY, LTD.

General Manager.
