To Hm {Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} , from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rn. {Mr Robinson}

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /RM {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 3/LG27, 8. 8. 28.
GYL-25. 75410
With reference to PN {Mr Northey} 5/WT24. 8. 28 attached.
We merely dealt with the question generally in a note to R. {Sir Henry Royce}
We suggest that you send Sales a pair of 600 lbs. front springs and 825 lbs. rear springs for GYL-25.
We are going into the question of 'nip' but in any case it will be some little time before we can get a spring made to Sales specification. We have a pair on order, however.
