EFC. from Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} X.24141. Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}4/W18.6.19. Please see attached. The Fellows Magnetos did not do very well during the War, but this was partly due to manufacturing difficulties. Have you investigated this Magneto, and if so, what is your opinion? If not it would perhaps be courteous to ask for a sample magneto to be sent on for our inspection, and, if necessar, test. Please reply early. Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} [Signature] Correspondence attached. | ||
