Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} ? To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Cadillac. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}14/E31.12.34 Referring to my Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}11/E18.12.34 thanks for Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/KW.28.12.34. I should like to hear from you as to which officials from Derby are going over to France to try this car. I am anxious that whoever is going should go as soon as the car is running again because, as mentioned to you, should it have an accident, our chances of obtaining first-hand information might disappear.
