| TO BJ. &. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} ORIGINAL RECEIVED JAN 12 1926 R10/M10.1.23. X4113 We propose having made under Derby control a light speed body for use with "Stork" & "Heron". A print of the drawing of this body will be sent to you to see whether it will suit the purpose to which your recent letter refers. We assume that only two doors will be needed on the English near side, and that the spare wheel (if there is only one) can be much nearer the back axle than usual. The battery will be in the frame.
