| x7961 H/S To Wer, from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to E.Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}6/E14.11.33 I thought you would be interested to know that in a personal letter from Mr.Fairey the following paragraph occurs: "My hearty congratulations on the Bentley. Neither Staniland nor myself had a single criticism and I am sure you have turned out the perfect Sports Car." He is, as you know, rather a severe critic and a very fast driver so that this praise from him and Staniland is excellent. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
