| #4039 Expl: Dept: Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}9/LG7.11.27. 7th. Nov. 1927. Messrs The O.S. Speedometer Co., 3-6 Alfred Place, Tottenham Court Rd., W.C.1. Dear Sirs, We are returning to you the gauge which you sent to us some months ago. Our interest in this gauge has now subsided because we are contemplating dispensing with the vacuum type petrol feed in the immediate future. Incidentally, it is almost impossible for us to fit this gauge and retain our present system of filtering. We thank you for the loan of it. Yours faithfully, | ||
