Dear Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}, I am to-day in receipt of your letter Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/6/ET of the 10th inst. Unfortunately, it is quite impossible for me to be at Derby on Monday next the 17th inst., as I have to meet officials of the Admiralty in connection with the manufacture of Convoy Kites, in the early afternoon. We have already received a substantial order for these Kites, and there is a prospect of its being very largely increased, so that I simply cannot afford to miss these very important people. I have, however, to be in Derby towards the end of the month, and hope it will be possible for us to discuss the Myth question with you then. Yours sincerely, | ||
