REAR AXLE.

Mr Royce was enquiring for particulars of Banjo type axles, pressed in two halves and welded. I have in my office a sample axle which I think it would be better for you to take down for his inspection next time you make a visit to West Wittering(Henry Royce's home town). Would you kindly arrange to send along for the axle in question.
