A.{Mr Adams} Robotham, Esq., Messrs Rolls-Royce, Limited, DERBY. Dear Mr. Robotham, Thank you for your letter of the 23rd instant, following upon the talk I had with Mr. Hives the other day. I shall be very happy to come up to Derby and I note you suggest the third week in August. As I happen to be leaving for my holiday on the 20th August, it would suit me better, if equally convenient to you, that I should come up the second week in August, say about the 12th. Perhaps you would kindly advise me. Yours sincerely, Geoffrey Smith DIRECTOR | ||
