| To WH. from R.{Sir Henry Royce} [strikethrough]to BJ.[/strikethrough] No copies R10/W15.1.18. X.2048 Re - Platinum for Trembler. Will you kindly send us a tiny piece of platinum to put on the blade of a trembler. It does not require to be so big as the standard Rolls-Royce size, so that any little worn out piece would probably do providing it has got a stem on it that would pass through a thin trembler blade. Please Ask Mr Ellis to look out a piece and charge it to me. [Signature] D R.{Sir Henry Royce} 18 JAN 1918 RECEIVED | ||
