I do not know whether you are now in a position to report that the Morgan supplies made in London are equal to Le Carbone. It would certainly help us considerably if such were the case. Attached is communication to hand this morning from Le Carbone, dated the 4th instant, advising us of further trouble they are experiencing. ROY. {Sir Henry Royce} ENCLOSURE. copy. Original letter.
