| R.R. 235A. (150 H) (V.V. 782 27.3.14) G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 0442. COPY. To Na. {Mr Nadin} from R. {Sir Henry Royce} Copy to Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Copy to J. {Mr Johnson W.M.} R3/P 9. 4. 14. In future for Le Canadel(Henry Royce's French residence) I should prefer that we had Prices A Engine Oil. There is no need to keep a stock of gear oil here. Very little is used, and any gear oil which is not too thick I think would give satisfaction. B & C Motorine gets too thin when very warm and after long use especially with benzol used as fuel.
