Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd., Date 3.2.30. Page 2 there would be a certain amount of spring in the armoured covering, which would keep the tension always on the screw, if done up reasonably tightly. We regret this omission, as We realise that it is desirable to test the full scheme of alteration if possible. We remain, dear Sirs, Yours faithfully, H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} HOBSON, Ltd. [Signature] Joint Managing Director. [Watermark: WIGHTMAN CO LTD AIR-DRIED PARCHMENT] | ||
