Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} -o- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} 32-EX. PHANTOM III. It has been necessary to have the mudguards on one side knocked out and painted as they were slightly damaged yesterday. It will not be an expensive item and the whole job has only taken a few hours. Walsh was driving the car and was fortunate to avoid an accident, as a car came round a corner at him in a broadside all over the road. ------------ Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/IMW.{Ivan M.
