Dear Lord Wargrave,

re 20 HP Chassis.

Referring to the above and the Board Meeting called for next Monday, I did not intend to write at length on this subject but had prepared some notes to read at the Meeting.

However, the receipt to-day of Mr.Royce's memo., R1/MS.4.29, renders it, I think, necessary to supply you with some matter for your consideration prior to Monday's Board Meeting.

I attach this in the form of notes.

In going through some former papers in regard to this whole question of the 20 HP performance I have come across a memo. from Mr.Hives to Mr.Royce of a year ago, copy of which is attached and which will be self-explanatory.

Copy of this letter is being sent to all the Directors.

Yours sincerely,

(Sgd) A.F.Sidgreaves

The Rt.Hon.The Lord Wargrave, P.C.,
Shiplake Court,
Henley-on-Thames.

Encs.
