Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.10/MA.27.6.34.

We wish to obtain a Delco-Remy 8 cylinder ignition distributor exactly similar to the one fitted to the Graham Paige Custom 8 at the Works. The on on the car is Model 66LY Serial 202.

Will you kindly undertake to suitably obtain one of these for us without provoking any suspicion that we are interested in an 8 cylinder engine.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.
