| To G/WFH. from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} +4038. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn{Mr Robinson}4/LG17.12.28. With reference to G/WFH/CA23/ES12.12.28. The position is as follows. The two gauges we mention as being required for our Expl: cars in the attached letter, we asked you to place an order for in our Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn{Mr Robinson}3/LG24.10.28. The gauge which they delivered for GFN.6. on the 18th.Oct. and subsequently replaced on Nov.15th. is a production gauge and is nothing to do with us except that we told Hobsons what the correct type would have to be in this letter. If the incorrect gauge sent on 18th.Oct. has not been returned, production should be consulted. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
