Dear Morgan,

Thank you so much for your letter, I am glad you enjoyed the trip. We were not at all disappointed in the fact that you are not able to give us more publicity than actually resulted from your wire. We quite understand the position and hope we shall be able to break a few records for you in the immediate future.

If, for any reason, you are near Derby at any time please look me up, either at the Works or home. My home address is "Park Leys", Duffield, Derby, telephone, Duffield 2394.

Yours sincerely,
