LID {A. J. Lidsey} See me
Dear Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ,
Wood and I have arranged to stay over night on Thursday and as we may have difficulty in getting accommodation due to the Show, we should greatly appreciate it if you could place a car at our disposal from 5.30 p.m. Thursday until the following morning. HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
If you will give me the tip as to what time you will be ready to see Wood on Friday morning, I will arrange accordingly. We usually reach the works about 9.30 a.m. but if you would prefer to have more time to sort out your correspondence, etc. I could bring him via Tollerton as he has not yet seen the place and arrive at the works a bit later.
Blb.
