Re...from PN. {Mr Northey}

I had an opportunity only of a very few words with Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} this afternoon about 18-G4, but I explained to him that it was proposed for the car to be useful in connection with impediments going to Le Canadel(Henry Royce's French residence) for R. {Sir Henry Royce} and that I was willing and glad to take it down, in that way running the usual mileage after the 10,000 had been done at Chateauroux(French test region).

I hope you will be good enough to let me have a line addressed to Rolls-Royce, Avenue George V. {VIENNA} Paris VIII, Paris, about the car and its movements.

For instance I hope to leave Paris on [strikethrough]xxxxxxxx[/strikethrough] the 9th or 10th with the car as I do not wish to have the expense of staying in Paris very long.

Will you ask Hancock to get in touch with me please in Paris?

PN. {Mr Northey}
