October 28th, 1912.

Mr. Barrington.

Road Clearance.

I enclose memo from Mr. Royce re above. Arrange accordingly for the Test Department. (FHR4/H221012)

Note that Mr. Royce is of opinion that the unnecessary clearance between the mud-guard and the flywheel and the nearness of the snout to the ground, should have been pointed out to him before these alterations were allowed to be introduced into standard practive.

Convey this opinion to those who were responsible.

Mr. Hanbury's chassis is No.1739. 'Please note what Mr. Royce says, and act accordingly.

C.J.

Enc: FHR4/H221012.
