| X6/36 BY/RD. From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.10/MA.5. 2. 32. We wish to fit the Exide universal 40/50 battery to 27-EX in order to get running experience as soon as possible. The P & R sample can then be fitted to 19-EX when it arrives. We should be glad if you will arrange to instruct a new battery box for 27-EX to take the new units. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
