Dear Sirs, We acknowledge receipt of your Order No. 99734 dated the 24th instant for which we thank you. We are putting the two Headlamp two-way Switches in hand immediately, but we regret we are unable to give you a delivery promise immediately, as the covers which you require marked 'Town and Country' must be brought through specially for this order. However, we can assure you that every attention is being given to the matter and delivery will be effected as early as possible during next week. Yours faithfully, JOSEPH LUCAS LIMITED.
