To J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} Copy to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Copy to Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} H/21714 R12/P 17. 7. 14. COPY. Old Cars. With reference to old cars, I should most certainly sell the old Daimler and Wolseley, but I think we ought to keep the Lanchester, unless we have a new Lanchester. I should propose that the present Lanchester be sent to Mr. Barrington at Walmer.
