E-F.C Messrs Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. Ref. AW/EA. Gentlemen, For the attention of Mr Bailey. Further to our Mr Wilson's call upon you a few weeks ago, you very kindly promised to forward full Specification of the battery which you contemplated using, and although you have placed your order elsewhere you thought perhaps we might have an opportunity of quoting you at a later date. We very much regret that the battery we sent you developed a leak, but this we cannot account for without seeing the battery. We should be very glad to make up a special battery to your Specification so that you can test it with others you may have in use. Assuring you of our best attention. Yours faithfully, FULLERS UNITED ELECTRIC WORKS LIMITED. [Signature] G.A. Fuller Director. [Handwritten note in bottom left corner]: Will you please supply this information to them?
