13th June.

Dear Mr. Robotham

Owing to the failure of the I.A.E. Visit I shall not be in Derby this week nor have I any prospects of being South for some time.

As it will therefore be impossible for me to call on you & see your data I shall be much obliged if you will be so good as to send me some of your results as a matter of interest to me.

I have not got far with my own experiments. Various other duties have cropped up; and this engine is rather a handful in any case.
I have got full data from the standard straight-through system, & am now going to begin on special systems.

Yours faithfully
John C. Morrison
