X1775 x4219 We recommend that the driver who will be with R.{Sir Henry Royce} at Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence should have uniform similar to the Sales Dept drivers. We know that R.{Sir Henry Royce} appreciates this. We suggest he should be provided with :- 1 blue suit. 1 blue over-coat. 1 light dust-coat. Cap. Gloves. The driver who is going with the car is the same driver as last year. When Mr. Royce returns, the uniform could be kept because as far as we know, it is most probable the same driver will go again next year. Will you please say whether you are in agreement.
