WATFORD MAGNETOS

I certainly think the suggestion from Messrs. North & Sons that "we know they do not warrant their goods beyond 12 months" is not in the spirit of the arrangement existent between our respective Companies.
I have always understood that they undertake to stand behind their products, just as we do.
I have taken up the matter with them further, and will let you know the result shortly.
ROY. {Sir Henry Royce}
