We wired you as regards W.O.Bentley taking over the Bensport car on Thursday. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} is rather anxious that he should get an impression of the car as soon as possible and we suggested that he should go and take the car away for three or four days and return it to you at Chateauroux. We suggest that you should keep Dodd for that job. In the meantime we have sent over Dean (he left today) in order to help you out on Peregrine. We are also looking around for some more men to send out to help you. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
