Thank you for your memo Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 4/R.6.3.37.

35.EX. has run throughout with Marchal Strilux conversions to GWH {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} 's instructions, who has dealt personally with the question of headlamps. So will you please refer to him for any information you require. I am sorry I cannot help you.

Regarding your last paragraph re.22.G.V. exhaust system, I should like to go thoroughly into this question with you on my next return to Derby. At the moment it appears irrelevant and ill timed.
