[Handwritten, faint: x5830 x4027)] [Text struck through: Copy to Mr. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}] [Underlined: Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}6/B21.1.FS{F. Steele}] Thanks for DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1/M19.1/S2. J.III. I agree and note you will send designs along for me to see. Re "Peregrine" and Bonsport. On general lines your remarks coincide with my views. I want, however, to get J.III dealt with first and we will deal with the other later. Perhaps you would make a point of speaking to me about it next time you are in town. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
