To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} From G.W.H. Hotel de France. Chateauroux. Indre. 31.5.33. W. Bell arrived here late last night. We expected the parts to arrive here first thing this morning but owing to the Transport Drivers error the package was understood to be addressed to Chatellerault, changed into another lorry on the road and sent back to Paris. With the result of our urgent enquiry this morning the mistake was found out. It will be delivered in the morning. W. Bell is meanwhile doing what he can to the shock dampers. G.W.H. | ||
