Your Ref.HEP/BMT.463 For the attentionof H.E.Price Esq. ? Dear Sirs, In reply to your letter of 31st. January, the writer and an assistant will be over at Fort Dunlop at 9.15 a.m. on Friday, 4th inst., if this is not too early. As we have no idea how long the tests will take we would like to start work as early as is convenient to you. The tests are to be made on a wet track. We can only find one extra set of wheels but perhaps these will be sufficient. We will expect your Test lorry on Thursday. We would like to thank you very much for allowing us to use your track and for helping in every way. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
