Dear "Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} ",

Referring to your Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /FJH. {Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer} 4/MH. {M. Huckerby} 29.10.38 I have just seen Mr Aubel of the MICHELIN firm, and explained the position to him.

He hopes to supply me shortly with 5 rims as specified by you in your above memo, and 5 tyres with a more silent tread.

As soon as I come into possession of these rims and tyres, they will be forwarded on to you.
