RECEIVED

We send you herewith drawing No. LeC.1230 shewing a further modification to the front portion of the "Buzzard" and "Vulture" chassis frames.

Would you kindly have this alteration incorporated in the bonnet models.

The drawing we send is a tracing of the actual design, and is intended for scaling, no dimensions being given regarding the actual shape of the curves.
