| X4617P To Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead} from EFC. EFC/T31.8.26. (charged) Will you kindly order up for the Expl. Dept. one right up-to-date standard P & R 40/50 battery, incorporating the latest improvements of which Mr. Minchin has advised me. This will replace the previous standard (not quite up to date) P & R battery which has been sent to Mr. Royce at W.W. in compliance with his request for a battery of the standard type. As it does not appear that this can be charged to R.{Sir Henry Royce} apparently it must be debited to the Expl. Dept. EFC. | ||
