| To G {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} /Gn/CA. from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 15/KW27.12.33. Referring to G {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} /Gn/CA.9/DN.23.12.33, these clocks were sent to me personally by Mr. Nicholls of the Sales Dept. of Smiths. Last time I bought a clock from this Company they sent the invoice to me personally, as they made a special discount. Possibly therefore passing the invoice through the firm is an error which they will rectify in due course. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
