----------

on such rare occasions which occurred when the full
load was necessary. To avoid bumping, it would mean
that the car would have to be driven somewhat slower.
This is a point that R. {Sir Henry Royce} has always agreed upon, and to
which we have attempted to work.

We have only failed, so far as I am aware,
when incorrect estimates of body and passenger weights
have been given to us to work from.
