re Phantom II. 10,000 Mile Test Car. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}6/E13.2.30.

I do not appear to have received any reply to my Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}26/E3.2.30 wherein I asked for information regarding the date at which this car would start.

You will recollect that for some considerable time back you have been saying that the car would start about the end of January, whereas we are now nearly half way through February.

I should be glad to have the information as soon as possible, together with a reply on the other point asked in the memo. quoted above.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
