| 1020a Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}7/MH.{M. Huckerby} 9th. September, 1939. Messrs. Wellworthy Piston Rings Ltd., Lymington, HANTS. For the attention of Mr. F.Blackith. Dear Sirs, Thank you for your two letters re the Dennis job. If the big end bearing was satisfactory in the first case and failed later on, we certainly think it is reasonable to suspect the oil and suggest that they revert to the original condition. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
