OUR REF. NFS/GEB.
YOUR REF. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.33/JH.

25th May, 1936.

Messrs. Rolls-Royce Limited,
Derby.

For the Attention Of Mr. H.E. West.

Dear Mr. West,

We were interested to see from your letter of the 22nd instant that you have completed several tests on the experimental sinterkorund plugs that we sent you some time ago.

I agree that it would be useful if we got together in the near future, and I find I can manage to come up to Derby on Thursday of this week. On the basis of your letter I presume this will be satisfactory, in which case you can expect me at about 2.30.

If perchance this day or time will be inconvenient, I shall be obliged if you will telegraph me immediately upon receipt of this letter.

Yours sincerely,

[Signature]

F.{Mr Friese} STOCKBRIDGE,
Managing Director.

P.S. I have received from our mutual friend Mr. Kennington a dimension sketch showing body, length of thread etc. of the two further samples that you require. I am getting these examined immediately.

N.F.S.
