| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X.3854 Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}/Dnl{Mr Dunwel}/BH30.3.26. Front Springs Self Shock Absorbing Type. During the early part of this month you sent to Order Office certain Plates removed from Springs of the above type, and which had broken on bumper test. These were returned to Woodheads with all the labels attached by you with a request that they be replaced as soon as possible. We are now in receipt of a letter from Woodhead's asking if we will send along the two Springs to have the leaves fitted, and they will return them without delay. Will you please advise when these springs are put into Despatch Stores, so that we can issue the necessary instructions. Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead} fr | ||
