S/W Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} C9/C30.7.36 Re B.34.GA...Professor Dodds. Park Wards advise us that they will require this car on Thursday, 6th August if possible, but not later than Friday morning, the 7th August. You advised Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} that you thought you could return it on the 9th, but apparently this will not be soon enough to enable Park Wards to have the car ready to return to the owner by the date he requires it, namely August 12th without fail. Will you please, therefore, let me know if it will be in order to tell Park Wards they can have it early on Friday morning, the 7th. C. | ||
