Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}/Mcr2/L25914. X/80 D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} 25-9-14. We have a new Kellner Double Limousine Body which is at present in storage at Messrs Holmes. There is some talk of selling this body with a new chassis to the Admiralty or some similar people, Mr Platford is doing the business. If this body is disposed of will you kindly see that the Exp. Dept. is credited with the full amount which was paid for it. It was purchased probably 6 months ago, from the Paris Depot I think. p. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Mcr.
