| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X4050 ROY{Sir Henry Royce}/GEA1/EB23.10.28. We received from the Dunlop Rubber Co.Ltd., on the 9th instant, two 33 x 6.75" Dunlop "Fort" Covers and Tubes, and as we could not trace having ordered these, we wrote to the Dunlop Co asking to whose instructions and for what purpose they had been sent. The Dunlop Co now inform us that they have been supplied in error, in connection with Mr.Bond's conversation with Mr.Robotham, and that the correct tyres which Mr.Robotham requires, will have to be made specially and it will be some little time before they will be in a position to effect delivery. Our object in writing this note, is to ask you to be good enough to advise us in future, when such arrangements have been made, and so avoid un-necessary correspondence and waste of time.
