Dear Major Seawright, Very many thanks for your letter. I shall be at the Show on Friday. It is very good of you to ask me to lunch, but as I have only a day to do all my various jobs, my movements will be rather uncertain. My wife will not be with me. I should certainly like to see you again, however, and shall call at your stand round about noon unless frustrated. I hope your business is going well. I told Dodson about the electric petrol gauge and asked him to pass the information on to you. It is at least refreshing to look forward to an entirely different series of troubles which I expect we will encounter in due course. Kind regards, Yours sincerely, | ||
