SALES DIRECTOR'S OFFICE 12th April, 1935. H.E.West, Esq., Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ld., DERBY. Dear Mr. West, Upon returning from the Midlands this morning I immediately investigated a report received from Mr. Manwaring to the effect that your Statoscope had not reached you. As a matter of fact this was actually sent ( unfortunately addressed to your Company and not to you personally as it should have been) under Packing Slip No. S.110994 on the 4th April. I trust that with this information before you, you will be able to trace it without difficulty. With kind regards. Yours very truly, C.W. Nichols SALES DIRECTOR (Signed in the absence of C.W.Nichols). | ||
