| X3730 S/W. {Sales / Derby Works} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Spl/H/23.1.23. RECEIVED JAN 24 1923 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 7 - Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) II. Maythorn Saloon ------------------------- IHS. instructs me to communicate with you re your Hsl/LG. 20.1.23. The alterations to front seats described in Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /Evl/M29.11.22. were not carried out through oversight. The memo in question was returned to West Wittering(Henry Royce's home town) for re-drafting and was not forwarded for action. therefore No re-draft has been received, the original memo is/still at West Wittering(Henry Royce's home town). If you cannot spare the car to go to Maythorns, it would appear advisable to have the alterations made at Derby. Perhaps you can arrange this. Will you please let us know what you advise?
