| <601> To By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wst.13/JH.26.10.36. Re Ignition Coil off 6-B-IV. In reply to your By.5/G.22.10.36. we have already examined the faulty coil off 6-B-IV and find that the fault was not due to breakdown inside the coil, but due to a fracture of the wire connection to the primery terminal breaking the primary circuit.
