| 1328 Experimental Dept. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.2/MH.{M. Huckerby} 19th. October 1938. Messrs. S.Smith & Sons Ltd., Cricklewood Works, London, N.W.2. For the attention of Mr.F.G.Eckford. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 12th. inst. and note your remarks contained therein. We would very much like to receive the two modified units mentioned in your letter of the 6th. inst. as soon as possible in order to enable us to clear up the temperature limits question on these calorstats. We have, however, returned the special Bentley unit which you sent us as we were unable to test this owing to the fact that we have discontinued the use of such calorstats on Bentley cars. The two units which we require for test purposes mentioned above, should be generally to drawing E.82893. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
