| X293 W/S. To Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey}7/KT.8.2.33. Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}10/BE.7.2.33. We do not think that Park Wards invoice is unreasonable. During the period which it covers there was a lot of work done. It would certainly have cost us more to have the same amount of work carried out by our local coachbuilders. The invoice of course does not cover all the work. We still have two men up here finishing off the 4th Peregrine body. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey} | ||
