Our Ref: DBB/DJC Your Ref: Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.3/MH.{M. Huckerby} 27th October, 1938. Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd., DERBY. For the Attention of Mr. C. S. Steadman. Dear Sirs, Further to our discussion at Earl's Court, the writer would be glad to be reminded of various matters in which you were interested. Actually, we believe that you had expressed a wish to have some samples of our Oil Pressure Switches, but we are not sure whether there was something further apart from the question of Thermostats which we discussed, and in connection with which we were expecting to have a layout from you showing the conditions under which they would be expected to work. The various items in connection with the Car Heater tests are well in hand, and we hope to be able to inform you in a day or two exactly when we expect to make delivery. Yours faithfully, THE AC-SPHINX SPARKING PLUG CO. LTD. D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} BENTON Chief Engineer.
