| 86051 Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. c. to C/MT. c. to D/BP. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.1/MA.24.5.34. A.T.SPEEDOMETER. We are sending into the stores one A.T. Speedometer No.H.753 which has given trouble due to the total mileage recorder not functioning correctly. Upon examining this instrument we have found that the total mileage recorder was loose and the worm drive pinion had worn very badly. Will you please arrange to return this instrument to the A.T.Speedometer Co., for repair and in view of the fact that this speedometer has done relatively little service since received from them we consider the work should be done free of charge.
