For the attention of Mr. J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} Russell Sharp.

Dear Sirs,

Further to our conversation of this morning, we are sending you a sample of E.P. Oil taken from the 10-gallon drum you recently supplied for the Bentley back axle tests.

You will notice that this is very considerably thicken than engine oil, and we should like to make sure that it is of the latest variety.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
