Messrs.Rolls-Royce,Ltd., Expl. Dept. Derby. For attention of W.A.Robotham, Esq., Dear Sirs, Following our promise made to Mr.Maddox in your office last week, to send him a die tool for the pressure balance connection on the Telegage, for use on any of the unions the nut of which may appear to run stiffly when unscrewing prior to the despatch of the chassis, we are sending you two of these tools under separate cover. If you will be so kind as to hand one or both of these tools to Mr.Maddox we shall be much obliged. We are sending two, as possibly you might find it advantageous to keep one in your department. If on the other hand you have no use for it, perhaps you will hand the spare one on to Mr.Maddox, from whose department you could draw it should occasion arise. | ||
