Correct explanation for a noise, questioning whether it originates from spring bushes, spring shackles, or the car body.

R.R. 935A (100 H) (LL 354. 3.7.12.) G 9699 R10/B28.4.13. C.J. from F.H.R. Copies sent to Mr. Wormald. X433 Re Spring Bushes (AM/CP21/T9413.) I do not think that this is the correct explanation. It was not this slack, which I particularly desire shall be maintained, If it had anything to do with the spring shackles, which I doubt, it would be end-play not diametrical fit. Why should our people say that it was the body that made the noise, unless they found that it was so? F.H.R. [Stamp 1 text]: W.M? 2 MAY 1913 RECEIVED [Signature]: hr. Wormald [Signature]: hm{Capt. W.
