Messrs Ferodo Ltd.,

For the attention of Mr.Field.

Dear Sirs,

We are sending you as promised four Bentley clutch linings in R.A.D.13 material for your examination. These have been taken from production and are drilled and countersunk so you can see whether this has any bearing on the failures which we have experienced.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
