RE BIJUR DYNAMO

If you are agreeable we should like to change the Bijur
Dynamo you have for house lighting for another one. The
Bijur dynamo you have is off the Packard car and we were
suggesting making this car complete and letting Mr. Cowan have
it to sell. We can let you have the Bijur dynamo off 49-GB
as we want to fit on to this a complete 12-volt set as the
present scheme of charging half the battery at a time is too
complicated We want to fit the car up with the dynamo we
propose to adopt. The Bijur dynamo off 49 GB will not
unfortunately fit on to the Packard.

EH.
