To: "Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}"
From: "Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}".

Lytton & Greatorex will be crossing over on the Monday night boat from Le Havre.

I am endeavouring to get the vertical pivot axles and castor pivots back to Derby as soon as possible, so that we can conduct tests which were frustrated out here.

I am going from Le Havre to Paris to try the "Lorraine-Dietrich" and therefore hope to be back at Works on Friday.
