| To RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}/Mr. Clay. 1124 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Mths.{Reg Matthews}5/JH.1.5.37. This is to confirm our conversation of yesterday afternoon in which you agreed to supply us with a cylinder block produced by Midland Cylinder Co . We should also like at the same time if you have one in the foundry or anywhere a porous block as produced by our Foundry. These cylinder blocks will of course be possibly scrap since we wish to get the Laboratory to give us an analysis of the materials. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Mths.{Reg Matthews} | ||
