Scholes.

Enclosed is a copy of a note I have sent to

I am sailing for America on the 17th. I would like you to ring me up in Tuesday, and give me a final outline of how the job stands. If you will wire me what time you will ring up, I will arrange to be available. Presumably when you get 6.B.IV. running you will be able to send the P.III in to have the half shaft changed, but we do want to get in some miles before we start pulling the P.III to pieces again.

3.B.IV. is ready to go out to France whenever you are able to handle it.
