Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd.,
DERBY.

For the attention of S. W. Grylls, Esq..

Dear Mr. Grylls,

It is approximately three months since I last called at your Works and saw the Bishop Steering Gear undergoing your "bump" test. I understood that if the gear successfully survived that ordeal it would be mounted on a chassis and given a road test.

I shall be very interested to hear if you have had an opportunity of testing the gear on the road, or preferably, if you will fix a date I shall be very pleased to give you a call at your Works.

Yours faithfully,
For CAM GEARS LTD.,

R.Pentony
Director.
