| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /4127 BY/EM7/W.28.11.24. RE BARRONIUM. ----------- Will you kindly supply us with an experimental order number to enable us to have produced in our Foundry a number of castings from the above metal. This material has been strongly recommended to us for certain castings such as carburetter parts, where we have troubles with porosity. We wish to carry out some experiments in regard to casting same in our own Foundry. BY/EM. [Signature] | ||
