HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
To E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Overheating of Engine Oil. Peregrine.
Copy to Won.Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
NY.RM.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}

Referring to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/KT.13.3.33 I understand that nothing has been heard from R.{Sir Henry Royce} in regard to this matter, doubtless due to his indisposition, i.e. he has not made any suggestions for overcoming the trouble.

Doubtless you are tackling this matter and I should be glad to know along what lines it is proposed to make further tests.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
