To Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} From Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Aln.

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Aln.3/MJ.8.12.34.

BENTLEY SUPERCHARGER.

We attach a print of Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 1642 giving the leading dimensions for a blower suitable for the Bentley engine.

In detailing this we think it will be desirable to incorporate a seal behind the rotor disk to keep pressures and suctions from the bearings as is done on our aero blowers.
