VISIT OF LEYLAND EXECUTIVES TO CREWE

You will remember that I brought Henry Spurrier over to Crewe about 6 months ago to have a look round. At the time he expressed a desire to let some of his production people have a look at your plant.

He is coming to see Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} on Tuesday next, 29th. October. with his General Manager, Mr. Liardet, and they would like to spend the morning at Crewe if you would be so good as to arrange this.

I think they would like to stay for lunch as their appointment with Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} at Derby is not until three o'clock in the afternoon.

Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}
