| X3839 PETO & RADFORD. CONTINUATION 2. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Fowler Clark Esq., (Extract) 12th July 1926. X8780 P.S. I am sorry that the four cells arrived with the acid spilt. The Works advise me that they were packed in a dog kennel type of box with stencilled instructions "lift by the handles" and the enclosed label nailed permanently on the box, so that we seem to do all that can be done to ensure the batteries not being up set. GRH Have you got your H T battery yet? | ||
