| x435 To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 12 cylinder Packard. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}14/E5.11.34 Referring to my conversation the other day, I wrote to Sr. enquiring as to whether there was a fairly up-to-date 12-cylinder car belonging to anybody in Paris which he thought it would be possible for us to try when you or I or possibly both of us are over in Paris for the Aero Show. For your information I enclose copy of his reply. If you will let me know a little later what date you will be over there, I will try to fix matters up. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Enc.
