To Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} from EFC. EFC4/T24.6.19. X.2741 - FELLOWS MAGNETO In answer to your Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}4/W18.6.19., we have never had a Fellows Magneto at the Works for inspection or test, although I suggested to Mr. Royce in November 1916 thatwe should obtain one of these for experiment. It might be worth while obtaining one of these of the 6 cylinder car type, amd trying this on the experimental car. If you care for us to write for one of these we will do so, or perhaps you will take the matter up. EFC. R.R. 235. (500) T.(S.F. 100). 25-10-18 O.{Mr Oldham} 2544 | ||
