| Fort Anne Hotel, Douglas, Isle of Man. 'TELEPHONE' 2 LINES, NO. 565 AND 566. 'TELEGRAMS' "FORT DOUGLAS, MAN." LISTED A.A. AND R.A.C. HOTEL. on my run up to Town from Derby on June 2nd. This arrangement will give you plenty of time for further adjustments if they require it. I should be very pleased indeed if you could possibly have a wire grid of light material made to protect the radiator, provided that it could be secured in such a way that it would not cause any inconvenience. I note with interest that you are carrying out a test on XXL, which I shall look forward to, & I hope that you will let me know the result. | ||
