| 1021 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.3/LT. 30th January, 1942. Messrs. Wilmot Breeden, Ltd., Eastern Works - Camden Street, BIRMINGHAM. Attention of Mr. Spicer. Dear Mr. Spicer, Many thanks for your letter of 27th January regarding the dovetails. These have already been returned to you. My reason for doing this was that I assumed that they were just standard fittings, taken from stock. That being so, the sliding blocks would not be in the correct material. This, however, I take it is a matter you will deal with. I note that the push button switch is definitely on the way to us. Up to the present, we have not received it. It may, however, have arrived at Derby. Yours sincerely, | ||
