W.A.Robotham, Esq., Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Limited, DERBY. 1st November, 1937. Dear Mr.Robotham, Thank you for your letter of the 29th October. The trouble you have taken to set down the various items in such detail is most helpful in enabling me to bring along the necessary information. I am looking forward to seeing you on Friday, and I wonder if you will be able to find time to have lunch with me. I will telephone you during Friday morning in case this is possible. Yours sincerely, F.S. Thacker | ||
