| Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}8/E18.6.37 18th June 1937 Dear Duckham, Many thanks for your letter of the 15th. I am afraid that the test of your oil has been delayed because we were in certain trouble with bearings and our people could not run bearings tests at the same time as a test of a new oil as otherwise you will realise one might have become mixed up with the other. The Experimental Department, however, tell me that the bearings tests are nowcoming to an end and they hope to be able to obtain some figures on your oils within the next few weeks. Kind regards, Yours sincerely, (A.F.Sidgreaves) Alexander Duckham Esq., Duckham House, 16, Cannon Street, E.C.4. | ||
