Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Copy to B.J. " " Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} X4260 LHS.{Lord Herbert Scott}1/EBN31.10.24 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.
