| r6110. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.17/JH. 8th June, 1936. E.A.Bayles Esq., Messrs. British Insulated Cables Ltd., Helsby, Nr. Warrington. Dear Mr. Bayles, Special Ignition Cable for R.R. Engines. In reply to your letter of the 6th instant, I shall be glad for you to make up for me the short length of 50 yards as suggested using 23/.0076" conductor. As it is almost certain this ignition cable is much better than the 19/.012" I have instructed our Production people to start ordering their production supplies using this conductor. Yours sincerely, | ||
