NEW HUDSON CO.- GIRLING BRAKE PARTS.

These people have spent about £175. on our behalf, and, so far, have got nothing out of it. They have been very helpful, and this work has largely attributed to the splification of brakes on Wraith and Bentley III.

We originally agree to pay them £55; we have not yet given them any of this.

Our present recommendation, in order to close the job is to pay them half of their out-of-pocket expenses. This amounts to £87/10/-.
