BY4/P12.6.19. e7C. THERMOMETER RECORDING WATER JACKET TEMPERATURES. ------------------------------------ Referring to your Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}2/W11619 we had instructed the pattern to the works in order to get the matter as far forward as possible, but beyond that nothing has been done in regard to producing the fitting for the thermometer. In view of this therefore I had already stopped work on the parts and am awaiting further information from Mr Day with reference to the length of the capillary tube before ordering up theinstruments themselves.
