Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.19/KW.8.7.35.

Thank you for your notes and the sketch.
This certainly has cleared up the position.

So far your reports on the front suspension
have been a little difficult to follow, for you so often
put "bump" where it is "rebound" and vice-versa.

We are having to forget experiments such
as rubber rolls rods temporarily, so as to be able to
make some cars.
