To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Waller went off ill last Thursday. He sent a Dr's. certificate which says he is suffering from pleurodynia. I engaged one of the London drivers to carry on up to Saturday last. If you can spare Hamilton I should like him down so as to carry out the tests on Brooklands. | ||
