X4038. Experimental Department. 12th. Nov. 1931. HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/MS. Messrs. H.M. Hobson Ltd., 47-55 The Vale, Acton, London W.3. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 7th. inst. and regret to say that at the moment it is not possible for us to let you have one of the tanks, and we should therefore be glad if you would for the time being, supply us with a Willis Venetian Cream dial calibrated in the same way as the 3 corrected ones that you sent us, which will enable us to carry on for the time being. As soon as we are able, we assure you we will let you have a tank to calibrate. Yours faithfully, | ||
