| To Mr. Mills O.O. from EH. [crossed out] X3314 EH2/LG23.4.19. 23rd. April 1919. You obtained for us the other day 1 Stewart Speedometer Drive for the "Buick" Car. We find that this is the wrong hand i.e. when it is fitted up the speedometer works the wrong way. Will you please return this to the Makers and ask them to supply us with another one the other hand. Will you also please order 1 New Driving Wheel, we are sending old one as a sample. o/n 435 [Upside down text at bottom right] R R 285 B (200) (T S) E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} 103 25-10-18) C 2244. | ||
