We acknowledge receipt of your letter dated the 31st ultimo in reference to your request for 6 Flexible Couplings to your Drawing No.D.B.2561 and in reply would confirm that we shall supply a rubber tube in place of the flexible metallic tube shown on the blueprint.

As requested we are arranging to supply in a soft, medium and fairly hard rubber quality and can assure you that we shall effect despatch at the very earliest possible moment although you will no doubt appreciate that we shall be very carefull through the manufacture of these parts.

Yours faithfully,
FOR THE COMPANY.
