'PEREGRINE' BODIES. X4027 The complaint we make on Peregrine bodies is not that they are breaking up but that they are full of irritating little rattles which come from the doors, windows, and other odd fittings. We think the trouble can be entirely overcome by better class ironmongery and attention to details. If you will only come to Derby, and if possible bring someone from Park Wards we are sure it is going to be to our mutual advantage. If you are going to control these bodies you must come and see and understand what we complain of as we shall not make much progress writing to each other. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
