This car, I understand, left London this morning and should now be with you. I hope you will be able to ascertain the cause of the clutch being so bad and remedy it in a way that will be permanent. I shall be interested to hear from you in due course, what is the trouble. Handwritten Signature: P.P. Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} | ||
