Mr. W. A.{Mr Adams} Robotham,
Rolls Royce, Ltd.,
Derby, England

My dear Mr. Robotham:

Have your letter of November 16th and I am enclosing a letter from Mr. Redner in regard to prices at which our filter could be sold.

The outfit that has approached us to manufacture and sell in England is the Simmonds Development Corp. Ltd., 18 Essex Street, Strand, Westminster, England; and we would appreciate any information you could give us concerning them, as we do not know a great deal about them.

We would indeed be interested if your friend in the general engineering business would like to look into the possibilities of manufacturing and selling this filter, if he feels that he could do something that would be advantageous to both himself and ourselves. We would naturally prefer to do business with somebody that we know something about.

I appreciate very much the comments in your letter.

With best regards, I am

Very truly yours,
Jervis B. Webb
