RE "GOSHAWK II" DYNAMO AND MOTOR.      [Handwritten: 977]

Would you kindly note Mr. Royce wishes you to let him have the particulars of the "Goshawk II" dynamo and motor as soon as possible. He is afraid we shall be late with these machines, and we are proceeding with the completion of the design assuming that there is enough room for the field windings etc.

Mr. Royce also remarks that we have never seen the drawings of what other people are offering, that is to say, drawings shewing the adaptions of these machines to the "Goshawk" engine, and he fears that these will not be ready.

E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} [initials]
