EWT/HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}5/T30.3.25.

re 20.HP.Chassis No.3.G.2.
Electrical Equipment.

Further to the last paragraph of our memo EWT/HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/T25.3.25, we are this morning in receipt of a note from JLE.{J. Lee Evans - Chassis Test Manager} Reading as follows, which please note -

"With reference to your EWT/HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}11/T23.3.25.
"We have examined this Dynamo and it would
"appear to be quite good, although the
"brushes are rather worn.
"We were unable to run the engine but will take
"special note of the dynamo when we test the
"car.
"As far as one can see the annealed copper
"commutator brushes appear to be satisfactory"

If, and when we hear further from him, relating to the Dynamo fitted to this Car, we will convey his remarks to you.
