| COPY. 'BJ' LONDON. Ps10/JP.9/9/26 Re 'LORRAINE' Car. (20-HP) 'Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}' and myself tried one of the cars which actually took part in the 24 hours trial, and 'Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}' will probably report to you via 'Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}' his opinions on it. In the meantime, I have written asking for conditions and delivery. As they will expect me to give them a decision one way or the other within a short time will you kindly instruct me if the car interests you. As soon as they give me details of cost I will forward them. Ps. | ||
