We have received your wire reading," SEND MAN TO DERBY COLLECT PARTS FOR TWENTY TWO EX-ROBOTHAM". We are sending W. Brazier this evening and he should arrive in Derby on Thursday morning.

If we are going to fit new brake shoes all round we must have a fitter to give us help. It would not mean more than a weeks job, when he would be able to return.

We shall require clamps and snap tools for riviting the brake liners onto the shoes.
