PROPELLER SHAFT CENTRE BEARING - BENTLEY 111.

We have discussed this bearing with Hardy Spicer & Co., and have made a few slight changes to meet their criticisms, as they will be making the shaft.

G.CD.247 herewith shews the bearing assembly up to date, and is intended to supersede G.CD.209, which has been held up.

Will you please detail and instruct.
