Re: Chassis 19-EX.

The Experimental Department want to send over one of their own men with this car and he will bring the car to reach Paris on Monday night next.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} presumes that Sleator will give most of the demonstration runs which are necessary on this car and that failing Sleator you have a uniformed driver capable of giving ordinary demonstration runs. If, however, such is not the case and you want us to send over a uniformed demonstration driver from London, will you please wire us on receipt of this so that we can make arrangements to send a man.
