| Description | The letter comments that Jacomb has heard that the Directors of the Great Ship Company are considering a tender for completing the ship that varies quite considerably from what Brunel recommended for finishing the ship and requests the Directors give Jacomb permission, on Brunel's behalf, to examine this tender and compare it with Brunel's recommendations. The letter also comments that, if the directors choose to suggest considerable modifications to the amount of work to be done to the ship, then it is only fair to allow the other tendering parties to revise their tenders in the light of the modifications. |
