SgC/EH.7.39 Dear PH., Would you please note that, before this goes back to Derby after its return from France, I am anxious to have another opportunity of trying it. I am, therefore, sending you this note so as to prevent the car being sent straight off from the coast to Derby. So far I have only been able to give it a very short run on the day we carried out the 40/50 tests down towards Marlow. Yours ever, (Sgd) Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
