4th December 1934.

Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd.,
Nightingale Road,
DERBY.

Dear Sirs,

We would refer to your letter of the 13th April 1933 and would ask whether we may submit sample sets of DURON Die Pressed Brake Linings for test purposes.

We would ask that you test these Linings against any Linings you like, on any brake drum you like, as we know the results you will obtain, and we feel sure when your tests are completed you will agree with the second paragraph of our letter AB/DN of the 19th April 1933.

Yours faithfully,
for BRAKE LININGS LIMITED

[Signature]
MANAGING DIRECTOR.
