| X7961 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Bly.{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales}22/HEM.30.10.33. re: Bentley Prospects. With reference to our conversation over the telephone today, would you kindly get in touch with Miss M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Wright, Yeldersley Hall, Derby, concerning a demonstration run. The position is that she called on the stand at Olympia and asked for a run when the car is in the neighbourhood. As mentioned to you over the telephone, we do not hope to have a demonstration car there in the near future and have therefore written to her today stating that you will communicate to fix up a run at some time mutually convenient. We also have an enquiry from a Mr. S.P.Parr, c/o C.H. Truman & Co.Ltd., Mansfield Road, Nottingham. He although in the trade owns a 1926 3-litre Bentley and asked that when there was a car in the neighbourhood to advise him as he would like to try it. (Handwritten note: have a car) We do not think this is very important, but should you be in the neighbourhood and could call on him, we think that a certain amount of good would be done. Bly{B. W.
