I have told him that the only chance of getting a car would be if there happens to be one unsold in the hands of an Agent. Should you know where there is such a car I would be very glad if you would give me a ring on the 3 o'clock call to-day. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
