We are getting a model made of
the Myth as drawn out by Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.

The model is being split at the
dashboard so that we can vary the length of the bonnet and the
appearance of the wings and radiator.

I have asked Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG to let you
have a print of his final scheme for the model and would be
glad if you would get Allen to work up a sketch of your own
frontal appearance so that we can have this made as an alter-
native to Green's scheme.
