Re Shuttered Bonnets. X.1085 Mr Johnson has again raised the point as to whether double shuttered Bonnets are as effective for keeping water temperature and floorboards cool as the louvred bonnets. Now that we are having such hot weather it seems the chance should be seized of making a comparative test if possible so that this point may be settled, as your last report on this matter you stated you were not sufficiently satisfied with owing to the coolness of the atmosphere at the time. p.
