| To EFC. from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} X.2048 E1/G25.11.19. X.2048. X.2512. X.3362. X.3129. RE CONDENSER FOR WEST WITTERINGHenry Royce's home town. We have already requested, as you will remember, that you will kindly return the 12 volts chassis coil which was intended for test on the lighting engine here. This coil was temporarily rigged up on chassis 1.EX without its ballast resistance. Would you please arrange to send at the same time, one of the standard make and break condensers for use with this same coil. You once made for us a special condenser with two stiff copper wire connections. The condenser was about 1 1/4" thick. This cannot be found anywhere and we fear it may have been sent back to Derby in error. Could you kindly make enquiries to ascertain if it can be found at the Works.
