| X8796 To Wd {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} /Dn. from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 2/T31.12.25. X.8796 - E06 WATFORD MAGNETOS NOS.77696 & 81062 Further to our EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 2/T9.12.25, as we do not now require these magnetos, and the Repair Dept. would prefer to have them made up-to-date, would you please arrange also that these be converted to the white base type, and credited to this Dept. We have a sufficient number of up-to-date machines at the moment for experimental purposes for all the experimental cars. These two magnetos presumably are at present with Messrs. Norths. EFC. {E.
