| 1300 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}6/MH.{M. Huckerby} 30th. September 1938. F.O.Hickling, Esq., Messrs. Ransome & Marles Bearing Co. Ltd., Newark-on-Trent, NOTTS. Dear Hickling, Some time ago you supplied us with some very small ball bearings suitable for scientific instruments, for which, I believe, the inside and outside diameters were 1/8 and 1/2. We should like to get hold of two more such bearings for apparatus we are now making. I hope you can let us have these. When are you keeping your promise to Hardy to pay us a visit ? Yours sincerely, | ||
