Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. For the attention of Mr. A.{Mr Adams} F.{Mr Friese} Martindale. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 30th of November proposing the visit of Mr. Woodhead and yourself to these Works on either the 8th or 9th of December. Mr. Humphreys would prefer Friday the 9th and accordingly we have made a note of that date. If Mr. Woodhead is coming here from Sheffield via Derby this will mean that you cannot arrive here much before lunch but this will be quite convenient for us. Confirming our telephone conversation, I will have the quantities of interleaving required for test and additional samples to show you by December 6th. Yours faithfully, FERODO LIMITED [Signature] Director. | ||
