Letter from Bradford Leslie to W. L. E. McLean of the Lancefield Forge Company, Glasgow
Description
Written from 18 Duke Street, London. The letter expresses Leslie's anxiety over the progress that has been made on forging the crank shaft. According to Leslie's last information, the shaft should have been forged and ready for boring and Leslie asks for an update on the current rate of progress with the shaft, its symmetry and soundness.
