PORTSMOUTH ROAD COBHAM SURREY · COBHAM 85 · Brooklands Dec. the 22sd.936., W.A.Robotham,Esq., Rolls-Royce,Ltd., Derby. Dear Mr.Robotham, To-day I have sent you a copy of my translation of Mr.Wood's paper. While the job is quite satisfactory for my Italian friends,I am afraid that owing to the short time available I had rather to rush through,therefore the phrasing is somewhat loose,and the style could be improved. Should your Company require a properly revised copy,I shall be happy to prepare same after the rush of these days. I shall be leaving for Milan on the 28th.,and stay there a few days;should there be any srvice that you may require there,please dispose of me. With kindest regards, Yours faithfully J.C.
