With reference to your telephone conversa- tion with Dixon here this afternoon, unfortunately, the tyre cover bands for the Bentley 'B' were not returned by you with the covers themselves, and we overlooked to send you suitable new ones. We have, however put on the train tonight from St.{Capt. P. R. Strong} Pancras two bands suitable for 20/25-HP. wheel and it will be necessary for you to cut them off as re- quired and refit the fasteners underneath.

Yours faithfully, for PARK WARD & CO. LTD. A.H. Thompson Encl. Please return original bands Both Greatores & the Stores packer remember these bands being sent away. (W) | ||
