We have now practically completed this car.

In discussing the matter with Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} he points out that an appointment has been made with you at Brooklands for 2 o'clock on Thursday next, the 10th.inst.

I have also promised to be in London on Thursday, and will arrange to bring the car down by road, so as to try the car with JLS. over our usual testing ground on Thursday morning, in order to make comparisons with other similar type new cars which I have promised to test with him.

We can arrange for the car to be delivered to Conduit Street or Lillie Hall any time after 12 o'clock. Will you please let me, or JLS. know.
