Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG19.2.26. Many thanks for Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG19.2.26. I had tried to make arrangements for my wife and daughter to return from Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence to Boulogne on 11-EX, but unfortunately it does not fit in with the programme, as it will be down in Florence at about that time. I particularly want P.N. to test it in some mountainous districts in warm weather.

I am therefore arranging for my wife and daughter to return from Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence by train.

B.J.
