Rolls-Royce, Ltd., DERBY. For the Attention of Mr. Wyman. Dear Sirs, We beg to thank you for the print of your Air Silencer, and are making arrangements for sample to be made up. As a check we would like to know (a) Exactly the size of your carburetter air intake sleeve, as we are afraid this has been mislaid. (b) Whether the air tube size shown on your drawing is really essential, as this is somewhat bigger than we understood during our discussion. Yours faithfully, THE AC-SPHINX SPARKING PLUG CO.
