Handwritten text: Chyst. Order Office. W Bagnall 4/12/13. Will you please machine, and let us have as soon as possible, 3 pairs of pivots, F.{Mr Friese} 3783+4, which are of smaller bore, in the stub-axle. The drawing has, quite recently, been altered in this respect, and it is the very latest type which we require. W Bagnall. If there are none of these pivots machined as yet, as they do not come into force until I believe 2700 series. They will require to be got through from 1st oper. This should be a job for Mr Matthews. JRC IPC 5/12/13. Beresford 5/12/13.
