| Sr. (Paris). From Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} x262 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/MJ.12.5.36. I think you know Mr. Minchin, who is an enthusiastic Bentley owner. He proposes to go to Le Mans to see the 24 Hr. Race and would like you to arrange accomodation. I heard from E.R. Hall that you had fixed up some accomodation and I should be glad to know what you have arranged. I have written to Mr. Minchin and asked him to write to you and explain what he wants.
