X7941 Pn.{Mr Northey} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}1/MA.11.7.32. Re. 19-EX ON CONTINENT. We have received the following information from GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} about this car :- "The car should have completed 9,000 miles before the end of the month, and be ready to hand over to Mr. Northey for his trip.. The papers should be in order as they were got out in the first place so as to enable visits to other countries. He will, I take it, have money to pay for the entrance and road licence. If he goes into Austria, he must declare what money he has on his person, and have it stated in his passport, otherwise he is liable to lose it when coming out."
