fine indeed. I was glad of it because it showed that all that I had said about the speeding qualities of the car was perfectly true. I think some of my friends thought my yarns a bit "fishy".

I shall look forward with pleasure to receiving some prints of your film to add to those Sleator kindly sent me.

Wasn't Lefevre's account of our dinner at Munich amusing. I hardly think that he was kind or right to say that I was déchaîne, that is if my rendering of the word is correct! I did at least do my story of the run after it before going to bed!

Yours sincerely

Kenn. E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Morgan.
