| R We are of the opinion that it was the work of some novice, otherwise more valuable material would have been taken, such as new tyres, etc.. We shall be leaving Chateauroux on Tuesday or Wednesday, therefore any important communication should not be sent here, but to Paris. Messrs Harvey, Butler & Greaterex will return by train. Cave, Brazier and myself will return with the car after completing the investigations of the "Phantom steering" at Paris. It would have greatly assisted us, had we the information as to how long we shall be in Derby; as we should then know what luggage to take back. We should be greatly obliged if you could send us a telegram, here, stating approx. time of our stay in Derby. G.W.Hancock. | ||
