To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 58-GN Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}2/E7.12.32

Thanks for Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}9/MJ.6.12.32. Kennett thought that the "flat spot" was due to the air valve sticking up but, after cleaning them and putting a little lubricant on it, we found that this was not the cause.

I think the best way will be for me to write you again next Monday after I have used the car for another week-end and then, if the faults referred to still persist, you can arrange to send some one up as suggested in the last paragraph of your memo.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
