| To Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} c. to Ey. file X4481 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 6/MJ. 30.8.29. The attached information on rear axle lubricant is rather important. We think the necessity for using only Whitmore's Compound Oil should be brought home to the Depots' and emphasised in the Instruction Book.
