| To BN.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} from EH. X.53 EH1/LC3.6.19. 3rd. June 1919. When one of Mr. Hanbury's staff visited Mr. C.P. Markham with reference to his cars, in the course of conversation he said:- "that if his staff of 25 Chemists at Staveley Iron Works could be of any service to us in making Fuel tests or anything of the kind, he would only be too pleased to give us such assistance". The benzol we use at the Works is obtained from the Staveley Iron Works. At the moment I know of nothing where we could make use of this offer but perhaps you may have some suggestion. EH. | ||
