W/S C. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} x180 (struck through) x3730 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/LG2.9.21. GOSHAWK 11. CHASSIS. Referring to your C12/LH{Mr Haworth}1.9.21. The interior drive type of body we have in mind is of a type similar to that fitted to the Humber Car. We wish, however, for the body to be of a type which is likely to be delivered to customers. We recommend that when you have the design of this body, it is sent to R.{Sir Henry Royce} for approval.
