| Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1110 | Rml5/R.18.6.37. The attached invoices indicate that Longs are charging us 64 dollars per clutch, which they made up for us in the States. This is a lot of money, but they were hand made, and they went out of their way to do this job for us. Therefore, I do not see how we can do other than pay them the price they ask.
