Reference Cxl/KW9.2.38, as this car is going to be with St giving a run in his district, I have instructed that it shall come to you on Monday afternoon next, 14th instant, or possibly on Tuesday if Watsons can find a prospective customer who would like a trial run. I hope you will be able to make your examination and check up at that time and allow the car to come back to London as soon as possible after you have finished with it. I presume you will only want to keep it about 24 or 48 hours. Will you please let me know if this arrangement is quite convenient to you. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} | ||
