To G/WFH. from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer} c. Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} 1300 ? or 341 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FJH.{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer}12/AP.7.6.37 Re. Your G/WFH/CA.13/NR.5.6.37 The linings referred to in your memo were samples of a batch rejected by our Production Inspection Dept. This batch was returned to Ferodos by the Works and later the four discs were sent by Ferodos to this Department for inspection purposes. As Ferodos eventually agreed that they were faulty we do not consider that they should be paid for. The four discs have now been mislaid so cannot be returned.
