H.M. Hobson Components Ltd.,

LONDON.W.3.

For the attention of Mr. Hughes.

Dear Sirs,

We are in receipt of the petrol gauge tank unit. We note the improvement in the finish of the actual unit, but are surprised to see that the original float is still fitted, as this is cracked and the varnish peeling off. We are returning the unit to have this remedied.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
