This job is similar in design to the standard Bentley V.{VIENNA} radiator and, as the manufacturing is carried out completely by John Marsden & Co., we would point out to HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} that Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Col. is being held responsible for ordering and supplying same. This completes the instructions for the above.
