| -2- Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., June 7th. 1919. The writer will be quite prepared to pay any expenses incurred in such an examination, and test, but he would like you to put somebody on the job who could sign a Certificate that would have weight, as very likely the National Benzole Company would be pleased to use the information for propaganda purposes. The car was laid up during the year 1918, and during 1917 was driven by a not very experienced girl driver for the Red Cross, otherwise the car has been driven either by the writer or an experienced chauffeur. Would you please address any reply to this letter to The "Hawthornes", Berry Head Road, Brixham, S. Devon. and oblige. Yours truly, (Sgd.) W. Butler. TB/BH. R.R. 235A (500 L) (S.D. 408. 26-4-17.)
