| X4588 TO Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. BJ5/H4.6.23. Re Trial of Pierce Arrow Car. I have just received the following telephone message from Mr. Royce:- "Can we make Thursday afternoon 3 or 4 o'clock for Pierce Arrow car with Mr. Hives? If not, Friday morning." I hope this will give you an opportunity of trying the car on the morning of the 7th and then taking Mr. Royce for a run in the afternoon. B.J. | ||
