COPY OF LETTER RECEIVED FROM:-

WALTER SCOTT,
102, GRANGE ROAD EAST,
MIDDLESBOROUGH.

Messrs Rolls Royce Ltd.,
Derby.

Aug. 3rd. 1921.

Dear Sirs,

You will find enclosed a prospectus of the "Scott Patent Cushdrive" flexible transmission.

I wish to get an offer of a lump sum, plus small royalty for the rights, in any or all countries under the Convention.

You will see the scope of its adaptability is unlimited; and I am convinced that it will achieve universal success.

Drawings and models are at your command, if you are interested; and an early reply will be appreciated.

Yours truly,
(signed) Walter Scott.
