to advise that we have now received from the Admiralty
permission to supply a "KELVIN-DIESEL" Model K4 engine to be
allocated from certain engines which are due for delivery in
August against Admiralty Contract.
We have written to Mr. Khalil Bin Ebrahim Lanoo informing
him that his order No. 140, placed in November 1941, is now being
dealt with.
We hope to have the engine and equipment ready for
despatch about four weeks hence and shall then be in a position
to give you shipping weight s and measurements.
The last paragraph in your letter is not understood,

which permission to execute has been given by the Admiralty, is,
in fact, the order placed by Mr. Kanoo as ■when ne confirmed it
by letter he sent us an original letter addressed to him by the
