NEW YORK BRANCH ROLLS-ROYCE BUILDING 32-34 EAST 57TH STREET TELEPHONE PLAZA 3-5725 June 12, 1934 Mr. W. A.{Mr Adams} Robotham Rolls-Royce, Ltd. Derby, England Dear Mr. Robotham: We received another statement dated May 28th from the New York Athletic Club showing unpaid charges of $2.51 against you. I took this up with them, being of the opinion that the statement of April 28th for $5.27, for which you sent us money and which we paid, had been the final statement. They explain, however, that this covers charges that came through after they had submitted the statement for $5.27, at which time they thought all the charges were in. It appears the error was due to your guest card having expired on March 16th, and that you used their facilities after that date. The item of $2.51 covers 10¢ for a phone call on March 23rd, and a charge of $2.41 for laundry on March 26th, which charge did not come through from the laundry until later. We are submitting this for your approval before paying it, and trust that they have finally accumulated all the charges and will spring no further invoices on us after this is paid. Yours very truly, ROLLS-ROYCE OF AMERICA, INC. L.A. King K-D | ||
