| To Gx. from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} c. to Eg. c. to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 45840 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}S/KW.16.1.35. Tests in France of the Cadillac and 21-G-IV by London Coachbuilders. With reference to this test, we have arranged for the two cars to be at Boulogne on Wednesday next to meet the boat which gets in at one o'clock. We are only leaving one Experimental driver with the two cars, and we should therefore like you to make arrangements for somebody to be available to bring 21-G-IV back to London after the test. Our own man will deal with the Cadillac. We think that it would greatly increase the value of the test if you could be present to point out the faults in 21-G-IV.
