New Headlights

Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}3/MK.13.10.36 - We understand Mr. Oliver Lucas is taking the headlamps in question to London, where he is hoping to show them to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} We are not sure why he has changed the arrangements originally made, i.e., to send them to Derby first for criticism.

Should you hear anything further perhaps you would advise us. In the same way we will let you know if we hear anything.

ROY.{Sir Henry Royce}
