Mr Royce wrote on 4/12/13 asking for you to consult with Mr Wormald re whether the present pivots were having the best heat treatment that is possible for them. Mr Wormald immediately had prepared some samples to form the basis of a discussion on this point, and he would like to know when you intend to discuss this matter as Mr Royce suggested. P. War. [Signature] I supposed Mr Wormald would send a message to me when he had prepared samples and was ready to deal with the matter. I am ready at any time to discuss this question.
