PROPOSED VISIT TO DERBY.

E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} has not yet returned, and though we believe he is somewhere around, we cannot say when we may actually see him. Under the circumstances I have not done anything further about coming to Derby.

Do you consider that the India(Production 20 HP. with 4-speed box and Front Wheel Brakes) steering situation is such that I could wait until I see E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} , or would you wish me to come up in any case this week? Perhaps if you would like me to come you would wire me on receipt of this memo.

Though I am quite anxious to come, at the same time I should very much like to have got R's recent instructions on the EAC.7. brakes a little further forward before being absent for some days.
