| Y3801 S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}/DH{D. Henderson - Showroom}2/ET.101226. Major Sturrock, of Messrs. Rootes Ltd., called in here, this morning, to introduce to me a Mr. S. H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Colton of King William House, Eastcheap, E.C.3. This gentleman is interested in white metal and bronze, and is very anxious to communicate with you at Derby relative to the supply of their metals should our Works at any time contemplate accepting their proposal. He intends calling to see you, and I thought I had better drop you a line advising you so that you could be informed first, and then pass to Mr. Royce, if necessary. DH.{D. Henderson - Showroom} | ||
