Dear Sirs, Your letter of March 28th. is to hand, also the interleaving S.9992. We are glad to hear that you hope soon to have your modified rig running, and we look forward to hearing the results you obtain. With regard to the plain board and S.9992 for Woodheads, we think it would be most suitable if sent to us as we expect to be paying them a visit shortly and can take it over with us. The quantity required is 1 set of each material i.e. five leaves of each in all, the lengths being as you have supplied in S.9992. An official order follows. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
