" We saw the Smith Instrument Patch on the 20/25 which Mr. Coverley brought along this morning, and all agree that it is a very neat and nice arrangement. The only point, as you mention, is that the lighting of it does not appear to be good enough. So far as we could tell in daylight, with your funnel, it seems very doubtful whether it could be read at night. " C. [STAMP] RECEIVED | ||
