| COPY. S/W. {Sales / Derby Works} (Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ) CWB21/LH. {Mr Haworth} 21.11.24. I am advised by BJ, that you are very shortly sending out a car to France for a lengthy trial with Firths' front springs. BJ. wishes me, in order to gain experience, to drive this car in France for say - a couple of days, and to arrange the matter with you. It would be most convenient for me to do this on Wednesday, 3rd. December and following day or days, or Monday, the 8th. December, and following day or days. Perhaps you will let me know if everything will be running about then and which of these two dates would be most convenient to you. Also, the full address of the headquarters in France and the best method of getting there. (Sgd.)CWB. | ||
