W.A.Robotham Esq, Messrs Rolls-Royce Ltd, Derby. My dear Robotham, Further to our correspondence on my Bentley Car, while I am in the States, I am proposing to send it up to you to have the engine overhauled, and the brakes dealt with, the latter are in rather a poor state and make the car a bit unsafe if driven hard, they have done splendidly, and have been badly punished. I should be grateful if you could get this work done for me with-in a week, and I will arrange to send the car up a few days after I leave for America, to suit your convenience. With kind regards, Yours sincerely A.H.R.Fedden. | ||
