| - 2 - Owing to the excessive amount of time taken to fit a complete pump unit, due to the method of insulation adopted in the early 4 1/4's, and the fact that Professor Dodd was urgently requiring the car, another pair of pumps were fitted to the existing pump body in order to save time. I rang you at N today, but received information that you were not there, so the purpose of this memo is to warn you as soon as possible that the A.C.plugs are not behaving too well, especially in view of the fact that according to Dr.Dodd's man, the works are sending him another set of this particular type as spare.
