Copy to Ck.{Mr Clark} Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}3/W3.1.20. X.3741. Re Supply of Hydrometers with kit for <strike>X 3684</strike> 40/50 Chassis. We wish to supply with the kit on the 40/50 Chassis an Hydrometer, as we think this is necessary to enable the electrolyte of the Battery to be kept at its proper gravity. We have had satisfactory celluloid hydrometers at the Works and we find these can be obtained in America but not in England, from the Luthy Hydrometer Co. These people quote us 78 dollars per gross. May it be approved, please, that we should supply one hydrometer with each kit? Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} | ||
