Visit to America - Letter of Credit. Will you please let me have a letter of credit for this visit. In view of the fact that it is hoped to run a considerable mileage on the car while out there, in connection with the continuance of the 10,000 mile tests under American conditions, I should like the credit to be for £350, to cover possible expenses incidental to this.
