To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Bentley 10,000 Miles Test. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}11/E18.6.34
Copy to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}E.B1. 4-B-IV.

Referring to the above which is stopped owing to connecting rod trouble, I should be glad to know when you expect it will start again.

As mentioned in my other memo. re 21-G-IV I think it it is advantageous to have a date to which you are working.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
