Rolls-Royce Ltd., D E R B Y. For the attention of Mr. G.H.Grylls. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 15th inst. in connection with a set of rams which you have recently received for experimental purposes. These rams are fitted with loose rubbers of the latest type, which we anticipate you will find satisfactory after putting them through your usual tests. Incidentally, we are sending you a further set of four rams which we should like tested concurrently before you have supplies, the only difference being that the latter set will have specially honed tubes - a process we have now instituted for all your rams. We note your request for two sets of pipeline for use during experimental work on the rams and these will be despatched to you forthwith. You will notice that these special rams sent for experimental purposes, have different markings on the top caps to keep these distinct from the usual 'A' type now being fitted to your cars. Yours faithfully, For DONALD SESSIONS & COMPANY LIMITED. Donald Sessions Director. DWS/IKS | ||
