We have today returned to you a marked up copy of the Phantom III Instruction Book, and now that you have decided to go ahead with the 6-GLD13-SR we should like you to note the full title of this battery, as when the writer last visited you the title was given as 6-GLD13-S. We have found it necessary to add the further suffix letter 'R' in order to distinguish certain features which apply to the batteries as supplied to you. Yours faithfully, PETO & RADFORD.
