Mr. Leslie Callingham of Shell-Mex 'phoned through to me yesterday with regard to an enquiry for a secondhand car which they wanted. He also mentioned that he had written to you on one or two occasions to know when it would be convenient for him to come to Derby and examine the engine which you have had running and experimenting with their oil. I think Mr. Leslie Callingham would like you to write and ask him to go up and see this engine.
