R.R. 285 a (200 T) (S.F. 674, 22-5-19) G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 2376 x3791 BN.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} from BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. EH. RE PROPOSED MODIFICATION OF STEERING BY ONLY SUPPLYING TWO POSITIONS. ------------------------------------ Referring to my memo BY12/P19919, I find that I have not actually written the memo to Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}, and sent a copy of Mr Cowens memo as suggested. I am attaching herewith copy of a wire received from C, the day before I went to London, also copy of memo C13/H9919, which will make quite clear the points raised in memo quoted above. I regret this matter was overlooked, but my typist was also of the opinion, when I mentioned it originally, that I had actually written the memo on the subject referred to and supplied copy of Mr Cowens memo.
