March, 1938. Dear Sirs, In reply to your letter of 22nd. inst., addressed to Mr. W.O.Kennington, the writer very much regrets that the three Coils which we promised you had not been sent. This was an oversight. They are, however, being despatched to you, and we trust you will receive them safely. With regard to the enclosed automatic advance arrangement, immediately we receive this back from you, we will proceed to make up a complete Distributor with this type of enclosed automatic advance to enable you to run further tests. We also wish to thank you for the small sample of high tension wire you sent along, and we have put this on our test fixture, and will let you have our remarks at a later date. Yours faithfully, B.Rushton E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} RUSHTON. TECHNICAL MANAGER. | ||
