| 42677 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Dwg.17/KW. 31st January, 1935. C.T. Skinner, Esq., The S.U. Company Ltd., East Works, Adderley Park, Birmingham 8. Dear Mr. Skinner, We are in receipt of the two Coil Housing rough castings, together with coils complete, for which we thank you. At present we are having made a modified Armature and Centre Sleeve similar to the rough sketch shown. FX17575 As soon as we have these to hand we shall build up a complete pump and if successful will submit same for your criticisms. Some time back you submitted a blue print of a modified type of Bentley float chamber for Mr. Elliott's criticisms. This we believe fell through as you did not hear from Mr. Elliott, and you therefore thought we were not interested. However, it appears that a letter (a copy of which we enclose) was sent, together with a blueprint from Mr. Elliott. | ||
