Captain A.F. Lyon,
Air Corps,
Wright Field,
Dayton,
Ohio,
U.S.A.

Dear Capt. Lyon,

I shall be in America in January of next year and hope to visit Wright Field early in February. Unless unforeseen circumstances occur I shall have one of our latest Bentley cars with me which might be of interest to you as it is rather unlike any motor car made at present in America.

I hope I shall have the pleasure of seeing you on this trip.

Yours sincerely,
