Mr.Buckland Managing Director of the A.T.Speedometer Co., and Jaeger instrument Co. has brought to my notice the article in the current issue of the Motor relating to the Bentley in which it is stated that Smith Speedometer and combined clock and revolution counter were used.

These of course were A.T. and we should be glad if you could arrange to correct the above statement.

Done
