Larwill is the proprietor and is thoroughly familiar with every road (good or bad) within fifty miles, so if the autoist is in doubt as to the most convenient road to go, Larwill's can direct him. A full corps of repair men are kept so that in case of a puncture or break down very little delay is experienced. [1]
