Dear Sirs, With reference to your letter of the 26th August regarding magnetos for your 40/50 HP. chassis, we have carefully studied the copy of the specification you have sent us. We have now developed a magneto which we believe will comply with the requirements of your specification, and we have put one or two machines in hand which we hope to complete and have ready to submit to you at an early date. We enclose herewith print M.416-A.{Mr Adams} showing the external dimensions and method of fixing of the machine we propose.
