W/S. To:- Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} 1097. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AA.{D. Abbot-Anderson}3/P.7.5.40. With reference to the 10-HP Cars which you recently kindly arranged for me to try in London. I fear that we are not going to purchase one of these various makes, because it has been decided to acquire a Vauxhall 10-HP, and the necessary action has already been taken. AA.{D.
