X.3035 RE ACID HYDROMETER.

In response to your enquiry as to the name of the
firm who make the syringe type of hydrometer, I fear I cannot
give you this as reference to this instrument was in an art-
icle in the "Autocar", and was of the most obscure description.
Unless the Order Office are able to put out an enquiry with
a view to finding the firm who make the syringe hydrometer, I
shall have to write up to the "Autocar" and try and get this
information from the author of the article.

E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
