CODES: A.B.C. 5TH & 6TH EDITIONS; BENTLEY'S. Reply to be addressed to John Marston Limited for the attention of AWD/BR 17th December 1936 STEADMAN. Messrs. Rolls Royce Limited, D,e r b y. For the attention of Mr. Steadman. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 16th inst., and for your information regarding the motor fitted to the Clayton Car Heater. With regard to your tabulated list of questions regarding Matrices, we shall be pleased to give you a reply to these in the course of a few days. We regret that due to the difficulty of clearing from Customs we are still awaiting receipt of the remaining 3 American Sample Cores. I think the best way of handling this matter is for you to pay us a visit if possible on Tuesday or Wednesday. By then we shall have all the answers to the questions ready and it is quite possible that the remaining American Cores will be here. In any case you can see the tests on the McCord. Awaiting your reply, We remain, Yours faithfully, FOR JOHN MARSTON, LIMITED, [Signature] MANAGER, RADIATOR & SHEET METAL DEPT. | ||
