Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}1/MJ.11.2.30.

I shall be going to Chateauroux in about ten
days time and should be obliged if you could spare R.Juliet,
as he is now fully conversant with the routine down there.
The job is the usual 10,000 miles test with 14-G4
25 HP. and will occupy approximately four weeks.
I should like him to meet me at Boulogne with some
cash which I will arrange with Mr. Steel.
A definite time and date will be sent later.
