the other day, a 30/98 Vauxhall Car for us to try.

We have a man who has been working in the Expl:
Shop as a Driver and for washing and cleaning cars. He
has had 5 or 6 years previous experience as a Chauffeur.
He has had exceptional opportunities of picking up experience
with the R-R Cars. He is now anxious to get a job as a
Chauffeur with the R-R. {Sir Henry Royce} He is single, and does not mind
where it is.
