| 6021 10th August, 1942. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /RC. {R. Childs} /2.GB. 10.8.42. Your ref. 3/WTR/A. Joseph Lucas Ltd., Great King Street, BIRMINGHAM, 19. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 7th August, concerning the laying up of batteries which have been in service. We have had a number of cases where the maintaining of the battery by refreshing charges is out of the question, and for this reason dealt with them precisely as recommended in your alternative method. We wished to make certain that we were treating these batteries in the best possible way. We thank you for your kind assistance in the matter. Yours faithfully, For ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
