| 1245' SECRET. W/P. Sr. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/R.22.7.38. You will have received Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s note - Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}7/E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} 20.7.38. referring to the 'Paulin' car. Attached is a copy of my reply. I think it would be a good thing, if it is at all possible, for you to bring the car over between the 22nd and the end of August. I was going to take B.III on the Continent then, but I do not think it will be ready, so will leave my run to Prague until September. I should like you to keep those bits of 3-ply wood as they will be useful for tests over here. When the car comes over it will be a good opportunity to bring Monsieur Paulin to the Works.
