OUR REF. CTD/LU 20th October, 1936. Hollin Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /STD (handwritten) Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd., Derby. Dear Sirs, We are in receipt of your letter of the 19th instant and would explain that we sent you the 84 m {Mr Moon / Mr Moore} /m Block as we understood from your letter of the 30th July that you required us to make one, and we pointed out in our following letter that it was useless to return to us the 60 m {Mr Moon / Mr Moore} /m Block for conversion. As we have gone to considerable trouble in making this Block up specially for you we hope you will carry out your tests, as no doubt your Radiator Department could fit this Block after slight alterations required to give the necessary clearance on either side. Yours faithfully, For GALLAY LTD. [Signature] | ||
