| Contd :- -6- GWH{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}/Cra8.6.25. ---------------- of the brakes have been xxxx taken up, and these are being replaced along with the rear whilst the car is at Paris Depot. We believe that this excessive wear of the front brakes is due to the fine sand that we have here on the roads, working its way into the drums. G.W.Hancock. | ||
