Body for Experimental 20/25H.P. Chassis. As arranged by Cx.{Major Len W.

Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} has already told you that the chances are you will find it necessary to alter the scuttle of the body. We shall be glad to hear as soon as possible whether you decide to take the body in which case, please return the chassis to Lillie Hall at the earliest possible moment. Hn.{F. C.
