To Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 34-EX - Nairobi Run. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}19/E17.3.37

I believe that the man who went with Mr.Symons was from your Dept.

Immediately on his return would you please ask him for his report - in particular about the brakes which Mr.Symons criticises and the shock absorbers from the point of the constant refilling with oil that was required.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
