J.S. Inskip, Esq.,
10 East 57th Street,
NEW YORK.

Dear Inskip,

Thank you very much for your letters and cables re the clutch on your Demonstration car.

I am glad that we seem to have settled this trouble, and hope that we will be able to get a supply of Long bits to keep you going in the future. Hives has agreed that we can fit these until we know something better.

I should like to take this opportunity of thanking you for the many good turns you did for us while in America. I am looking forward to having an opportunity of entertaining you this Autumn. I am sure that however impossible you may feel it is for you to get away from New York, a visit to England will repay you in the future time and again.

Mr. Elliott has taken the matter of the left-hand Phantom III very seriously, and if we can get the agreement of the Administration I believe that we shall be able to do a great deal to help you in this respect.

Yours sincerely,
