| W/N. X4238 To Cricklewood, from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /TMW. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /TMW1/LG27.9.24. 20 HP. EXHAUST SYSTEM. We have to day despatched per passenger train to you, a Silencer and Exhaust Fittings to scheme 563, blue print of which we enclose herewith. This is at the request of CWB. (CWB28/LH {Mr Haworth} 26.9.24.) and is intended to be fitted to the Dowager Lady Cain's 20 HP. car No. GF.37. Care must be taken when fitting, to ensure the free working of the exhaust pipe in the sliding joint as any binding or tightness will defeat the aims of the experiments. The same swan-neck pipe will do, but this must not be strained when being bolted to the support bracket on frame. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /TMW. | ||
