Dear Mr. Robotham,
Thank you for making arrangements to have the small experimental carburetter returned to me.
This has just arrived in my Office, and I hope to make the necessary modifications and return it to Belper -"For the attention of Mr. Salt"- in about one week's time.
It is very encouraging to hear that you are arranging to have this subjected to tests in the near future.
Yours sincerely,
[Signature]
