SUBJECT Ultra High-Speed Ignition Equipment.

7th May 1934.

Dear Mr. West,

I saw a letter a day or so ago from you to our Company on the subject of High-Speed Ignition.

I have been looking for an opportunity to come up to Derby and see you, with a view to discussing this recent development of ours but, unfortunately, I have been away and have not been able to do so.

This new High-Speed Ignition Distributor of ours was designed by us over here and is British made.

If your Company is interested in this subject we shall be only too pleased to call upon you by appointment, at your convenience, and also to co-operate with you in running an engine with a view to demonstrating the efficiency of this Ignition at very high speeds, as compared with the ordinary standard form of Ignition.

Yours faithfully,

[Signature]

Managing Director.
