| C O P Y. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} and Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}12/ML.1.3.40. Attached is a copy of the Minutes of the Meeting held at Park Ward's on Tuesday, February 27th. We have also interviewed Mr. Hewitt, the man recommended by ER. for the planning of the body project. He seems very promising. Since Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} now has inevitably to devote the major portion of his time to chassis design, we shall require at least two draughtsmen and Mr. Green is assisting us in finding the right type of men.
