Bellringer - Repair Manager} Sft. {Mr Swift} WHG. [Text has a line struck through it] Damper Valves. With regard to the fixing of the dashpot piston to the valve, we now think that this will be most satisfactorily done from various points of view by the use of a taper fit, and we accordingly send N. Sch. 3856 which shows what we suggest. [Handwritten signature across text]: LES [Typed]: HDY. {William Hardy} [Handwritten]: See me [Handwritten]: HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
