Dear Sirs, We are in receipt of your letter of the 4th instant, and on communicating with our Works we find that it will be necessary for us to take certain tests in order that we can be quite sure that we put forward a battery that will be in every way satisfactory for your requirements. We anticipate that the tests will last about a week but we will arrange to write you further as soon as the necessary information is to hand. Yours faithfully, PETO & RADFORD, | ||
