| X3695 To BP. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to Chat. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG20.2.23. We are sending into the Stores an 'Acrometer' we ordered from Messrs. Negretti & Zambra. This gauge did not suit our requirements, (they have since, however, supplied us with a gauge with a larger scale and not such a high reading.) Will Mr. Royce kindly issue the necessary instructions for the gauge to be returned to the makers. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
