P.S.

Since writing the foregoing, Mr.Hives has given me your two drawings as follows:-

(a) Reference 8901 drawing No.13321.
(b) Reference 8902 drawing No.13322.

After considering these, we still prefer the design enclosed herewith, to that shewn on drawing No.13321, but we are of the opinion that drawing No.13322 shews a distinctly better treatment.

There are one or two points in regard to head-room at the back, and size of light which we think could be improved, and we are making a drawing shewing these modifications, which we will send on in the course of a day or so.
