| X.4244. To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from St.{Capt. P. R. Strong}(for R.{Sir Henry Royce}) St1/M12.7.22. GOSHAWK CLUTCH. X.4244. We understand that in these clutches originally the centering bush indicated in sketch below was left out until Mr. Elliott mentioned the matter on his visit to Derby. Mr. Royce would like to know definitely whether now that these bushes have been incorporated in the clutch, we can eliminate the distorted clutch plate edge, and use them flat as was at first intended. Would you kindly therefore reply to Mr. Royce, giving him the necessary information. St.{Capt. P. R. Strong} CENTRING BUSH | ||
