WRAITH FAN MOUNTING.

Further to our Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std.9/MH. {M. Huckerby} 28.6.38, production have requested that the combined water outlet fan support casting should be cored as per sample herewith, instead of as per drawing. We are in agreement with this and have discussed the matter with By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} and he sees no objection. Accordingly, the endurance reported on in above memo was carried out with a sample casting made as per production requirements and no trouble was experienced.

Will you please, therefore, instruct the combined water outlet and fan mounting for production modified as per sample herewith.

Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std.
