Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} C. to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} X5220. E2/17.6.29. Re 20 HP. EXHAUST MANIFOLD. We conclude from GWH{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}/13.6.29 that the exhaust pipe broke from restricted movement rather than the load due to sliding, and recommend still more clearance in the stud holes.
