| X5360 GRY{Shadwell Grylls} S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}..from C. Re 20-G-4. C8/C22.2.34 I find that owing to a typing error a few lines were left our of my memo C5/C20.2.34. The fourth paragraph should read:- "I understand from Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} on the telephone that the RAD. material was not fitted, but our ordinary standard. Shortly after you altered the brakes, however, they developed a very bad squeak indeed. You sent one of your men to Lillie Hall to attend to this, but afterwards the brakes developed a very bad "judder" at round about 18-20 m.p.h.- perhaps a bit less..." I have underlined the words left out. Would you kindly amend my memo. accordingly. C. | ||
