E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} W. Hives Esq., Experimental Department, Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., Nightingale Road, DERBY. Handwritten: Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Dear Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} , I enclose herewith a memorandum I have just received from our Detroit laboratory on the subject of valve steels for motor car use. This, I think, is self-explanatory, but I thought that you, Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} and Coverley might like to have the information for purposes of reference. I am coming to Derby to see Wood on Tuesday next, the 15th September, and if you are available in the evening of that day I would rather like to see you. Perhaps you would have dinner with me. With kind regards, Yours sincerely, [Signature: F.R. Banks] FRB/BB | ||
