| X5992. Restaurant Octobon Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence Par Le Lavandou (Var) France. Sur. 1. 5. 32. Mr. Hives from Dodd. Hancock has taken most of the baggage up to Chateauroux, I shall be able to manage the rest to Havre. It only remains now for me to send a wire to Chateauroux, & Derby for the car to meet me at Southampton. This I will do when R leaves Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence. We proved during Hancock's stay that we can run on K.L.G. plugs at .025" and that it is the Lodge plugs which fail under full load. This is what I reported early in the season. Yours faithfully F.{Mr Friese} Dodd. | ||
