| W/P. To Sr/Dn. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} #1245# 1380 Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}13/MH.{M. Huckerby}5.8.38. With reference to Dn8/MLG.4.8.38, this is very bad news because I am definitely going for my holiday for the first fortnight in September, and after that expect to be in France with the 15,000 mile Bentley III. I therefore suggest that an effort be made to get the Paulin car completed by the 20th. of August. If this is impossible it would not appear to be any use sending it over until the 10th. of September, as I want to take an interest in all the tests done on the track etc. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
