With reference to my note Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}4/P21.5.19., attaching particulars from Messrs. Rudge Whitworth, of black finish process, I find there is a mistake in the original specification for the first process for oil blacking.

The weight of sawdust should be 2 lbs. and the amount of oil 3 pints.

With regard to the paragraph describing Phosphorizing the number of volumes of water for dilution which is omitted should be 20.

Will you please correct your copies.

Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}
