DEAR SIR,

BELL'S ASBESTOS EASTERN AGENCY.
With regard to the composition applied by you to the Bellers and Steam Pipes of this Stanmor, I beg to State that it has given every satisfaction.
The Donkey Boller, which is on the upper deck and totally exposed to the weather, had a very severe text last tely, and sear breaking over it contiusally did not detach any of the composition‘nor has it in any way deteriorated.
་
Ja my opinion it is one of the best non-conducting compositions I have sem sad perfectly self-adhesive.
Yours faithfully,
