DERBY.

Dear Sirs,

In reply to yours of the 26th inst, reference Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}/WIO/H26118. asking for a quotation for C7. "Umpire" Batteries as shown on page 78 of our old catalogue, we can deliver 6 of these in about 14 days and the price would be £1.3.-. for each cell nett, packing and carriage extra.

We would point out that this type of Battery is not suitable for high discharge. If you are thinking of a large capacity battery out of which you wish to get big discharges, we can quote for something quite different to this.

Yours faithfully,
THE NEW
PETO & RADFORD ACCUMULATOR CO. LTD.

G.R.N.Minchin
MANAGING DIRECTOR.
