DIPPING HEAD LIGHTS. X.4555.

As we wish to have a set of these lights tried as soon as possible, we have completed the scheme by doing the hand control, and send herewith N.sch.1356. shewing the hand lever mounted on the steering column, in both 'B', and 'D' positions. We shall be glad if you could take an opportunity of getting one of these sets pushed forward as soon as convenient.
