| S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} A796 Bly.{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales}39/HEM.1.11.33. re: L.E. Weldon, Atholl House, Radcliffe Road, Nottingham. --------------------------------------------- The above endeavoured to arrange a demonstration run on the 3½-litre Bentley during the Show, but unfortunately the car did not turn up. We have now been asked by H.N.Holder, who has purchased one of these chassis for himself, if he could give a run to the above on Tuesday afternoon, 7th instant. In order that we may save sending a car specially to Nottingham for this, I am wondering whether you could spare a car for this particular case. If you could kindly let me know by return, I could then get in touch with Mr. Holder and fix up a definite appointment. I hope you will be able to assist us in this connection. Bly{B. W.
