will you please let Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} have a report on clocks

Dear Mr. Robotham,

May I enquire the position regarding the six Electric Clocks you have on test? I wrote you recently in regard to this - also concerning the Heaters, enquiring whether we may help you with the installation work of the latter.

Awaiting your kind news and thanking you in anticipation,

Sincerely yours,

[Signature]
Charles Whamond
