Kendall has been enquiring about, kindly note that we received 12 castings from the White City, 6 of these were our standard type of piston and appear O.K. and are now being machined up by Mr Horrocks. The other parts were of the Zephyr type and were condemned by our Inspection Dept. as scrapped. Mcr. | ||
