Dear Sir, Replying to your note of the 29th. ult. reference as above, we regret that owing to certain dis-organisation due to evacuation, we have mislaid your letter of the 12th. June to which ours of the 13th. was sent in reply. However, as there is nothing to be done with regard to the car which was wrecked (we believe) in Dieppe there appears to be nothing to be gained by pursuing the matter further. Thanking you for your efforts on our behalf, Yours faithfully, for ROLLS ROYCE LTD., | ||
