INDEPENDENT WHEEL SUSPENSION.
A fair amount of progress on your scheme was made some time ago, and recently we have done some more in our spare time. It seems to be coming out quite well. We are now going to make a picture for patent purposes, and also to illustrate the scheme to those interested. The main drawings should then not take long to complete sufficiently far for Derby to rig up an experiment.
