25HP. CLUTCH.

We send herewith N. sch. 3564. shewing the suggested modification to the 25HP. clutch to bring it into line with the improvements recently suggested for Peregrine, and P. 2.
'As in the case of the latter the intention is to cause the minimum of alteration to existing pieces.

We have not shewn a flexible drive, but it is obvious that this could be incorporated without difficulty if it is found necessary.

We consider that you now have information to enable you to incorporate the new type of clutch in P. 2., J.3., J.2., 25HP., and Peregrine.

IA.
