To Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}/Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X8950

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} absent.
Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}7/LG10.8.27.

CAR NO:78-SC. X8470

With reference to Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}/Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}22/ED{J. L. Edwards}1/8.8.27. We find that the pieces we made for this car were not sent down with it when it left the Works.

We are arranging to despatch them by the next car which goes to Conduit St.{Capt. P. R. Strong}

The plate at the back of the pedals is not of much use except to get an idea of the position of the foot for people who take it off the pedal when driving.
