re - Chassis 24-CE.
We give below, extract of letter from Rippon Bros. regarding batteries supplied with this chassis
"We find on coming to use the accumulators for chassis 24-CE, when charged one of them is leaking in 3 cells, two of which are cracked and one has a small hole in the bottom. We returned these to you this evening we think on examination you will find that there must have been a flaw in same before they were fitted into the case. Kindly have same made right and return all speed and oblige"
We shall be glad if you will have the parts examined upon arrival, and let us have your report, stating whether a new one should be supplied without charge.
