BRISTOL.

Dear Fedden,

Thank you for your letter of the 18th. October.

As you are probably aware, car work has been almost entirely suspended at Derby. We have, however a skeleton staff which are dealing with repair work. We can, therefore, tackle your car if you prefer it to come to Derby. The alternative is to send it to the Kingsbury Depot at Hythe Road. We leave it to you to send the car where ever it is most convenient.

Yours sincerely,
