We are very anxious to have a luggage box fitted
to the SS. {S. Smith} when we bring it to W.W. towards the end of next week.
Without the box we are afraid the appearance will look rather
peculiar with the large gap between the body and the wheels.
We thought if we could get hold of the box
without the inside fittings, it would be all that was necessary.
Will you please let us know whether it is
possible for us to collect the box either next Tues. or Wednesday.

Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
