G.W.Hancock, Esq.,
Hotel de France,
Chateauroux(French test region),
Indre,
FRANCE.

From Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}

Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 7/MJ.9.7.31.

We expect the 25 HP. car 19-G will be ready to go to France at the end of next week. We think you should arrange your job so that the tests on 25-EX. could be carried on, and you should return to collect 19-G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} about Wednesday of next week (the 15th.inst.).

Before you come back we should be very glad if you could get through a comparative test comparing the small and large radiator tubes on 25-EX. so that we can discuss the results. We should also like to go over the question of the bonnet fixing.

It may be convenient for Leslie to come back with you, and we will send out another man to replace him.

Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
