Dear Mr. Rowbotham,

Many thanks for your letter of the 30th ult.,
ref: Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/MJ with regard to the Maybach Double Six.

I enquired a little while ago regarding this Car for our client, Captain J.F.C.Kruse. Apparently there is no English Agent, but I will write you full particulars in a day or so as I know that Captain Kruse has some information and I will then obtain delivery date and price for you.

Yours sincerely,

F.L. Maney
