X 4084 To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. Copy to Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} BJ4/H23.11.22. Re Spares, Special Tools and Tackle for 20 h.p. Car. We particularly want Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} to prepare lists of Goshawk spares which are likely to be necessary for our depots abroad. We are waiting to send out £1,000 worth of to our agent in Australia. To enable Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} to ascertain what parts are most likely to be required, I hope you will be able to arrange for him to have the use of one of the experimental Goshawk chassis which has been used for some considerable time. It has occurred to me that as we are immediately returning to you the Goshawk known as Mr. Royce's touring car you may be able to spare this for the purpose. RECEIVED B.J. | ||
