We should have liked Mr. Ward to come along to the Works right away to see this car and to discuss with you the defects which developed in the body, but he left England this morning for a fortnight's holiday, so the inspection will have to wait until you can send the car to London in about a fortnight's time. Of course, we could get Park Ward to send somebody else along, but we are sure it would be best for Mr.Ward to make the inspection. Hn.{F. C.
