With reference to the above, would you kindly note that we only require a cabinet of the very simplest description, one drawer, in fact, for holding the experimental cards. This will have quite a large enough capacity for the present volume of experimental work, and as time goes on another single drawer could be added, as desired. [Handwritten Note] Yours to hand of the 15th this morning. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Can you get one drawer only [Stamp] D 18 MAY 1917 RECEIVED | ||
