We attach hereto a chart showing the position of the E.A.C. job. All the instructions that have been received at Derby are well in hand, in the D.O., the Exptl:Dept: and the Pattern Shop, but the information received from West WitteringHenry Royce's home town so far is of such an incomplete nature, that it affects any real progress being made with complete sections - for instance - we have only one section complete, i.e. the Front Axle with Front Wheel Brakes.
