R.R. 235 A (100 T) (S.F. 846. 6-8-19) G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 2460. C.K. x.819 Ref 2EX To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from CJ. CJ4/E10.3.20. X.3743 RE 10,000 MILES TRIALS CAR. X.819 I attach herewith copy of memorandum sent to Mr. Royce yesterday. Is this body a particularly unfortunate one in this respect, or must we look forward to the buyers of the modern R-R, who have scuttle dashes, even in open cars, suffering to the extent that the passengers in this 10,000 Miles Trials Car do ?
