MAGNETO WIRING. X9560
I think the arrangement you have made is good, and if it is the coolest and neatest possible, I should get it tested by HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} as satisfactory, before running over other schemes. It would be a pity to put the wiring so as to reduce the ease of inspection of the starter main switch.

R. {Sir Henry Royce}
