Re. BODY UNDER-FRAME
I was very disappointed owing to illness at being prevented from attending your demonstration yesterday, which from all accounts appears to have been highly interesting.
I propose, if convenient to yourself, to come up to Derby on Thursday, Nov.6th. accompanied by Sp.{Mr Spinney} who has not had much opportunity of seeing the same.
From a coachbuilding point of view, I consider your experiments of the utmost importance, and I regret that there is only one body on under-frame at the moment for experimental purposes as it may delay you with your experiments.
