Dear Mr. Maton,

Thank you so much for the
very pleasant time you gave me yesterday.

I was very glad to see that
you had started on the Bentley body schemes and
do hope that you will be able to get the job
moving, as we are most anxious to make up our
minds what type of tools we require and put
them in hand so that we shall be able to go
into production on the cessation of hostilities.

Please do not hesitate to let
me know if you are held up for any reason; we
can let your people see the body framework or
anything else in connection with the job, should
they wish so to do.

Yours sincerely,
