G.W.Hancock,
Hotel de France,
Chateauroux(French test region),
Indre,
FRANCE.

To Ha/GWH. {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} from Ha/Rn. {Mr Robinson} Ha/Rn. {Mr Robinson} 8/KT.27.5.33.

We have received your note. Owing to the front axle control we have not an axle we can send immediately. We shall have one ready by Monday, however, and W.Bell will cross over with it via the Newhaven-Dieppe service. We have asked Paris to get the parts down to Chateauroux(French test region) with the least possible delay.

Ha/Rn. {Mr Robinson}
