| WST. What about this? P Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} The Works report that deliveries of Mellotone Horns are being received from Messrs. Lucas, which have got elongated holes in the trumpets, and we are unable to trace where any official instructions have been issued. Before the Works will accept these horns it is, of course, necessary for us to revise our detail drawing but before doing so we would like to have some official information. BY/Cgh.{W Clough} | ||
