To Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Raymond Mays. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}2/E26.2.37

Just a line to confirm conversation on the telephone to the effect that he is still waiting to hear from W. as to when to send his car in in connection with the brakes.

When you get his car will you have it tried for thump in the engine. It has done about 8,000 miles since the bearings were examined and dealt with by the Repair Dept. - see their Com/D/AWS19/S.7.1.37. which sets out what they did.

Re his Mellotone horns, will you please make sure when you get the car that these are the latest type and, if not, try to arrange to get them changed.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
