Captain Wilkes,
The Rover Motor Co. Ltd.,
Coventry.

Dear Capt. Wilkes,

We should like to take the opportunity for thanking you for the courtesy you extended to us yesterday, and for the very useful information you were able to give us on the Girling Brake. I hope you will come and visit us some time before very long.

With regard to the 14 H.P. car I suggested should be sent over next week for trial, we have now decided not to change our car until the spring, and therefore should like to postpone the test until then. I will certainly try this car before we make a change.

Yours sincerely,
