| X4429 Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from ROY. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} ------------------ ROY {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} 11/MG/23.10.22 It would help us considerably in our arrangements for Material Supplies in connection with "Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine))" if you could possibly urge the report on the Firth Axle Springs you have under observation. If you are not in a position to supply a report on such Springs, would you kindly advise when it is probable you can, as from present communications, it would certainly appear that we shall have to place a further order with Woodhead to ensure output. ROY. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} [Stamp: RECEIVED 23 OCT 1922] | ||
