| S/W. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 261 re- Martin Hurst. Cxl/KW19.4.40. Reference Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/ML12.4.40, Mr. Martin Hurst rang me up yesterday, but not to ask me to help him to sell his car. He has decided to keep it. He was endeavouring to help a friend of his to purchase a Bentley, instead of continuing to use a 3½ litre S.S. that he bought some few months ago. Mr. Hurst, whilst touching upon the subject of his present car and the trouble, seemed reconciled to the amount he had to pay and to continuing to use the car. Cx.{Major Len W.
