JUL 26 1916 RECEIVED] With reference to telephone conversation this afternoon, I should be glad if you could add on to your wire to Mr.Royce, which I understand you are sending regarding the Z. and Claudel-Hobson carburetters, something to the effect that the question of carburetter for Mr.Royce's Bugatti car is having Mr.Platford's urgent attention with Claudel-Hobson & Co. and that he hopes to communicate something to Mr.Royce tomorrow, after Messrs. Claudel-Hobson's Representative's visit to the Works, which we have arranged. EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} [Handwritten in left margin: 12266] | ||
