To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.3/AP.21.9.37 200a 6.B.IV. Car. This car already has a Negretti & Zambra thermometer fixed in the top water pipe, but the capillary runs outside the body instead of through the floorboards. Will you please correct this while the car is in the Shop for Clutch modifications, and mount the dial head of the instrument on a small aluminium plate (which we will supply) on the dashboard.
