RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 85010 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 4/MA.2. 3. 3. 32.

J. {Mr Johnson W.M.} 3. CRANKSHAFT.

While this engine is being used for gear noise experiments we think it a good opportunity to test the crankshaft inertia. Will you please give the crankshaft to W. Bell to swing complete with balance weight but without the flywheel.

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /H.Grylls.
