Mr. Hancock from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} We do not wish to fit the fabric coupling which Marston originally brought out, we want you to fit the one which we have sent out with Butler. We also want the 'L' shaped rings fitted to the pistons. A barrel of Wakefields oil has been sent to Chateauroux. As regards the grease gun. We will arrange to send this out on the next car. When 93-NK returns we can take up with the makers the wear on the thread. The road springs have now been sent out. When you fit up the coupling, we want you to leave off the sheet metal cover.
