Mr. Johnson.

-5-

I am having a very interesting enclosed Limou-sine-Landaulet built by Mulliner for myself. It has one or two distinct novelties besides being, I believe, the first Enclosed Limousine-Landaulet ever built. I am arranging for a section of the roof over the driver's head to be raised slightly if required. This should do away with the roof forming and sounding board. The total weight is not to exceed 8 cwt.

The new Nothey novelty Enclosed Limousine should be a useful model for trial work.

I am glad to say Mr. Oldham has returned from his holiday much the better for health.

(Signed) H.S.
