Capt. W. Gordon Aston.

The above will be writing the Introduction to the 'Phantom III' Catalogue (as he did for the 'Phantom II'), and for that purpose would like to have a look at the chassis.

I therefore propose bringing him up to-morrow, Friday the 9th instant. We shall arrive at Derby at 1 o'clock and I should be glad if you would kindly have a car to meet us.

Capt. Aston does not propose visiting any other part of the Works, so that a guide will be unnecessary, but perhaps you would have someone to meet him at the entrance to conduct him to the new chassis and explain certain parts to him.

Bkl.
