Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std.4/AP.

Messrs S.Smith & Sons Ltd.,
Cricklewood works,
LONDON N.W.2

For the attention of Mr.Grose.

Dear Sirs,

Referring to your telephone calls of today, the writer regrets that he was not available. The size of thermostat required is 1¼” – we understood that this was covered by your code X30065/5 – see your letter of Jan.28th. (Ref. S.10). The only way in which the unit should depart from your code X30065/5 is in the opening temp. which should be 68 – 70°C.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
