X8940 Expl: Dept: Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., Derby. Angleterre. 19th. Mar. 1925. Hotel de France, Chateauroux, Indre, France. Mr. Lidsey from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} As we are expecting to send 93-NK car out to France about the end of next week, we do not propose sending out new pistons for 98-NK car at the moment. We should like you to arrange to leave the most reliable man there in charge. If you do not think there is anybody capable, will you please say and we will send someone else out. For the few days they will be there, they ought to be able to carry on. It is probable that we shall send Bagley with the next car and let him take charge of the job. Before you return, we should very much like you to go over the car that is there so that you can bring back all the information as regards its condition. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
