GW/DN Subject 10th February 1937. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., Experimental Dept., DERBY. FOR THE ATTENTION OF MR. LESLIE. Dear Sirs, We are in receipt of your favor of the 9th inst. suggesting that you should visit our Works on Friday next, with a view to testing out a pair of our Road Springs. We shall be very happy to see Mr. Leslie but unfortunately the undersigned has, at the moment, an appointment out of town on that day, and it cannot very well be deferred. If, therefore, Mr. Leslie could make it convenient for Monday or Tuesday of next week it would suit us very much better. Regretting we are not able to exactly meet your wishes for Friday, We are, Yours faithfully, RICHARD BERRY & SON. [Signature] Manager. | ||
