W.A.Robotham Esq., Messrs. RollsRoyce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Mr. Robotham, I have this morning received a letter from Mr. Grose, of Messrs. S. Smith & Sons, London enclosing a Blue Print of proposed Thermostat for Rolls-Royce, and he informs me that you are doing nothing with this yourself but want us to fix it up for you. If this information is correct we shall be very pleased to do it for you, but as regards fitting the Thermostat itself, I would suggest that this is a job rather for you than for us. I am assuming that the information I have been given is really incorrect. Kind regards. Yours sincerely, TCSkinner | ||
