By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to EH. c. to BJ. ORIGINAL. X. 3061. R2/W22.12.17. 3 We understand that Mr. Hives is satisfied that the new articulated rod pin is a better design than the original one. I should be glad to hear that you have agreed to standardise this if it is not already done. I am particularly anxious because I think it is a easier thing to manufacture and get right and it provides two oil ways. [STAMP] D 27 DEC 1917 R.{Sir Henry Royce} RECEIVED | ||
