For the attention of Technical Dept.

Dear Sirs,

We are returning a sample piece of your petrol pipe, our piece number FW.568. This tubing is supposed to be petrol resisting but as you will see it has perished.

This is the second case of trouble, and we should like to have your report and suggestions for improvement.

The matter is urgent.

Yours faithfully,
