LONDON. W.C.2.

Dear Sir,

Thanks for yours of 13th inst. regarding the trial run our Mr. Robotham had in the 10-HP. Standard Car.

I note your remarks regarding the tune up you have given the engine, but, apart from the engine, Mr. Robotham was of opinion the suspension was very poor.

I will, however, discuss the matter at the earliest opportunity and communicate with you again.

Yours faithfully,

(D.G.Abbot-Anderson.)
