A.F. Sidgreaves, Esq.,
Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd.,
14/15, Conduit Street, W.1.

My dear Sidgreaves,

You will remember I was in communication with you some time ago with regard to a 12-cylinder PACKARD Chassis and I was informed that you were under the impression that the PACKARD 12-cylinder chassis for next year would be fitted with independent front springing.

I wrote to our American house with regard to this and this morning I have received a letter from the General Manager of Packard Motors Export Corporation in which he states the 12-cylinder PACKARD will not have independent suspension.

I am going to America next month and if I can do anything for you with regard to a chassis please let me know.

Yours very truly,
for LEONARD WILLIAMS & CO. LTD.

(Sgd.) Leonard Williams.

Managing Director.
