Dear Mr. Minchin,

I thought you would be interested in seeing the photographs of the Dagenite battery which was fitted to Mr.H.E.Symons' Phantom III. chassis, which recently crossed Africa to Nairobi.

The photographs illustrate the condition of the battery just as it was received with the car, and we should like to say that the battery was at that time functioning perfectly satisfactorily.

Yours sincerely,
