Dear Mr. West,

With reference to the aero sparking plugs which we are making up for you, the set of 24 screened samples are now almost ready and I hope to be able to send them to you early next week. Before doing so I should like to have the gaps adjusted to the setting you require, and as I know you attach considerable importance to the gap setting will you please advise me of the dimension you desire so that I can arrange accordingly.

Yours faithfully,
THE AC-SPHINX SPARKING PLUG CO. LTD.
