W.A.Robotham, Esq.,
Experimental Department,
Messrs. Rolls-Royce Limited,
DERBY:

Dear Robotham,

I was so sorry to miss you at Derby to-day when I was seeing Mr.Royce.

I did not get your wire until late last night, as I have been away for the week-end, but as I had an appointment with Mr.Royce, I had to go in any case. Many thanks for wiring, all the same.

I should be most interested to know if you have yet come to any decision on the question of tyres, or if you would like me to come to Derby to see you; if so, please suggest a day which would be most convenient to you.

Yours sincerely,

Rothes-
