| G/Cam. from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} 1332 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry{Shadwell Grylls}3/R.29.4.37. With reference to your G/Cam/CA.23/WP.28.4.37., we have received a total of 8 of these tyres from the Dunlop Co. Owing to the fact that these had to be hand made and that there will shortly be moulds in existence, they asked if they could postpone delivery of the remaining 16 until the moulds were ready; we agreed with this, but still wish for the tyres as soon as possible.
