STAMP: R.R. LTD. DEC 10 1919 REC'D Rolls-Royce Ltd., Nightingale Road, Derby. Gentlemen:- Att: File EHS/LG31119. We are pleased to acknowledge receipt of your kind favor of the 3rd inst, contents of which have received our most careful attention. We regret to see that the BOYCE MOTO-METERS are of no interest to your good selves, because we looked forward with great pleasure to seeing every Rolls-Royce riding in the streets, with a BOYCE MOTO-METER attached to it, but do not think that we have lost hope entirely, as we sincerely believe that it will only be a question of a short time, when we will add you to our list of car equipments. The instruments you received from us, you may as well keep as they were paid for by your New York representatives and, therefore, are your property, but we would appreciate if you have no scrupples about it, that you send us at the earliest possible opportunity one of the instruments made by the Cambridge Scientific Instrument Company, such as you use in your own cars, advising us beforehand, what the cost will be in order to receive it by parcel post all charges prepaid and insured against all risk, so as to send you cable money order, thus insuring quicker service. If you want to send this instrument by parcel post, sight draft attached for payment of invoice, you may do that or you may use any other means satisfactory to your good selves. Awaiting your prompt reply and hoping to receive that sample as promptly as possible, we are Respectfully, Eugene Klein EXPORT MANAGER. EGS:K | ||
