To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. Copy to O.{Mr Oldham} BJ1/H24.1.23. X3730 BODIES. 20 H.P. P.N. has now tested the two 20 h.p. chassis after the limousine bodies have been exchanged, and finds that the old chassis is somewhat quieter than the new chassis. I presume you are in no particular hurry to have the old chassis or body returned to you. I should like to try this car during next week end, in order to test the magneto. B.J.
