| Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}15/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 25th June, 1937. Capt. W. Lawrence Hope, International Air Freight Ltd., 120, Pall Mall, LONDON. S.W. 1. Dear Hope, Here is a photograph of yourself taken on board the "Berengaria". My Father-in-law's cigars are in such bad condition that I cannot go and see him now. I think you might have one clean with the specification of the conditioning chamber! If you will come to Derby and see me you can have a look at the photographs and decide which of the others you want. I have got several hundred. I understand that Lapping saw you the other day, otherwise I should have thought that you were in Georgia. Yours sincerely, | ||
