Rolls-Royce Ltd., Nightingale Road, DERBY. For the attention of Mr. Fowler Clark. Dear Sirs, With reference to the Ebonite Separators which you desire in the batteries in future, we have compared the sample you gave us with the type we used in the sample battery submitted to you and we find that ours are very considerably thicker and have many more perforations to the square inch. We think that ours represents a more durable article and although they will cost more we propose to put them forward in the batteries that we supply in the future. Yours faithfully, PETO & RADFORD.
