The detailed Drawings for
the large
"Tank & Water Service"
being ready I invited tenders from Messrs Handyside of Derby, Messrs Rankin of Liverpool, and Balfour of Leven near Glasgow, as they are all largely engaged in this class of business. Messrs Handyside declined to tender having already been unsuccessful against Messrs Rankin on two occasions.
Messrs Rankin for delivery in London required £485. 6.0 or in Liverpool £444.10.0 while Messrs Balfour undertook to
372. 15.0 deliver in London for £372. 15.0
I feel every confidence in recommending the lowest tender as I have known the firm in question to carry out their contracts in a very satisfactory manner on a former occasion.
Master of the Mint to Sir Frederic Rogers Bart.
