| 261.55 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry{Shadwell Grylls}8/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 3rd November, 1937. Raymond Mays, Esq., Eastgate House, Bourne, LINCS: Dear Mays, Sorry I missed you at Donington yesterday, but I did not expect you to vanish so soon. The reason I did not stop and talk to you before going round the track was because we wanted to make use of the available daylight. In case I do not see you before you go to South Africa, I hope you pull the race off, and that the new axle shafts do not let you down. Yours sincerely, | ||
