Dear Mr. Manning, Thank you very much for ringing me up this morning. I can try the Reo and Lagonda on Wednesday morning next, Oct 4th, if you can arrange the runs then. I can be at Audley Street as early as you like in the morning. The "fire engine" has met with considerable approval, and certainly seems narrower than any of the others, though we have not taken any weights. Yours sincerely, | ||
