Dear Ward,

Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} will be sending you a detailed summary of the things we talked about yesterday.

We are now going ahead with the drawings of the Myth and shall hope to be submitting something to you for your consideration in a few weeks.

We understand that you are having some difficulty in retaining your best sheet metal workers, but hope you will not fail to retain sufficient staff to deal with these jobs of ours.

I am enclosing a covering note to the report I gave you yesterday. I cannot think why you failed to receive the original.

I omitted to collect the clock gauge which you had on your desk and shall be glad if you will send it along.

Unless we hear to the contrary we will arrange to collect the lorry on Wednesday.

Yours sincerely,
