| X3805. To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to Worr re Bentley 4-Litre Engine. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}21/E28.9.32 Thanks for Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/MJ.27.9.32. The engine is not really saleable but later on if you really do not want it, it might be worth returning it to the Bentley Service Station so that they can dismantle it for spares. There is no hurry about this, however, as they have plenty of stock and I/will put the matter forward for a year. [Stamp Text] RECEIVED XXIX SEP 1932 Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
