W.O. Kennington, Esq.,
Messrs. Delco-Remy & Hyatt Ltd.,
11, Grosvenor Road,
London. S.W.1.

Dear Kennington,

I am returning to you herewith the blue prints with reference to Delco ignition which you kindly lent to me when we met in London recently.

I have told the Ministry that I am ready for their conference with regard to the adoption of battery ignition, but have not received any reply from them.

I hope we shall soon get instructions to go ahead with battery ignition for development.

Kind regards,

Yours sincerely,

Enclosures.
