| XJ035 To Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}/Ms. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} c. to Mr. Chatwin. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn{Mr Robinson}2/LG7.9.25. We are sending into the Stores for despatch to Messrs. Benson - 1 Stop Watch No.3141. This stop watch was sent to the makers a short time ago for repair. It has not been satisfactory since. It does not agree with the other stop watches we have in this Department. In addition, the minute recording hand is inclined to skip a division for no apparent reason. We should be obliged if you could get the makers to make a thorough job of this. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
