Mr. Hancock from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}

We recommend you return to Derby after you have completed the 10,000 miles.

We understand from Rn.{Mr Robinson} that he left with you a paper which he has signed saying that the car has undergone no alterations in France etc. and which will enable you to clear the customs from this side of the channel. This paper has already been signed by Rn.{Mr Robinson}, who is stated on it to be CJ's representative and it will only be necessary to fill in the date.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
