SMITH THERMOMETER Will you please arrange to return to Messrs. Smiths one of their thermometers which was sent to us some time ago with the two sample instrument patches. We require the part which is intended to fit into the cylinder water jacket to be modified to the correct dimensions as on D.53259. The existing one is too long and too large in diameter. We are handing the thermometer in question to the Stores. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
