Hallam - Head Repairs} /FHA2/EW24.3.27, we are in receipt of a letter from the Chloride people as follows:- "In connection with the battery which you returned "ex chassis GYK-40, under the circumstances we must "agree with your Mr.Clarke that the slight difference "which we registered between one of the cells of this "battery and the remaining five was due to some "unaccountable phenomena. "We believe that you will find the battery "perfectly satisfactory without any repairs being "carried out, and we are therefore giving the battery "a final discharge and recharge, and will then return "it to you."
