| -2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.4/AD28.9.31 contd. We recommend that a sample batch of say 24 of these Boyce clocks be put through on production in order to gain a general opinion of them as compared with the manual wound time piece. We pay Messrs. North & Sons £2.15.0 each for our standard clock whereas we paid only £2.0.0. each for the sample Boyce clocks which price probably would still more be reduced in the event of a production order.
