COPY. THE HOFFMANN MANUFACTURING CO. LTD. CHELMSFORD. Ref: CP/MEB. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd. DERBY. 19th August 1941. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 31st July and we find upon looking into the matter that for some reason which we have not yet been able to ascertain we have supplied three times the number of Bearings mentioned in the copy of your letter of the 3rd March enclosed with your letter of 17th July. It occurs to us that you may subsequently have instructed us to triple the quantities of Bearings called for by your letter of the 3rd March but we have not yet been able to find any evidence of this: we are continuing our investigations however, but in the meantime if you are able to throw any light on the matter it would be greatly appreciated if you would write us again. Yours faithfully, The Hoffmann Mfg. Co. Ltd. | ||
