The question of your doing this was discussed by me with Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} and Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} the other day. It was also agreed that we should fit a new cylinder head which Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} says is available and tested. It was agreed that no charge should be made to Mr.Hall for the work done but I should like a note sent to me of the total expense incurred. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Enc. Copy of Sg{Arthur F.
