| S/W {Sales / Derby Works} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ..from C. X435 C16/C25.4.35 Re 12 cylinder Packard. Confirming our conversation on the telephone today, I will arrange with Mr.Geoffrey Duveen for the Packard to be at this address at 9.30 on Tuesday morning next, so that you may collect it and have it for the day. I understand you propose taking it up to Derby to try it on some of your Derbyshire Hills and to try it with the Spectre(Codename for Phantom III), and therefore it will not be necessary for E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} to come to London, as he will be able to try it in Derbyshire.
