To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X4199A. 18.2.31. I have to report an accident which occurred last night at Sanderson & Holmes. Whilst reversing R.R. car 20-EX. out of Sanderson & Holmes' yard, I had the misfortune to back 20-EX. into an 11 H.P. Standard belonging to Mr. J.A. Young, Watford, Herts, damaging his offside front wing only, and the nearside rear wing of 20-EX. I have given all particulars to Mr. Lomas, who now has the job in hand. Louis Syman. 18-2-31 | ||
