Cleveland Engineering Works, Darlington, } 11/b 3rd, 1903. Dear Sir,-To the 10 b.p.Gladiator belongs the glory of eing the first motor ca r to successfully tackle H onisttff Pass . Tbe contour road book describes the road as follow s : After Seatoller '' the road is simply amass ot loose stones over a hill that is almost too steep for even coaching traffic." Bu t the car did even better in a general way. First day of trip over Kilthope, 2 ,050 f€et , then Alston to Penrith summit, nearly 1,goo feet, and from Patterdale over Kirkstone Pass to Waterhead Hotel, Ambleside. Three heavy climbs in one day without a falter of any kind is a quite good enough test o f a car for me. Two passengers and luggage equal to a tbird.-You rs faithfull y, CHARLES F. DIXON.
