| COPY. ROY{Sir Henry Royce}/JT.3/GB. HRB/B. 7th June, 1934. (Dict. 6th) Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Sirs, Re BENTLEY CHASSIS. In reply to yours of the 5th inst., in regard to the clocks in the Bentley Rev-Counters, we would report that we had noticed a little while ago a tendency for the large dial of this instrument to lift up the hands of the clock. We are dealing with this little difficulty by means of two small screws along the extreme top edge of the dial, in order to anchor same more rigidly around the clock. This, we find, definitely disposes of this trouble. Always at your service, We beg to remain, Yours faithfully, For THE A.T. SPEEDOMETER CO. LTD., HAB Director.
