Rolls-Royce, Ltd., DERBY. Dear Mr. West, As arranged with Mr. Elliott, I am bringing my car up to Derby and will be there on the morning of the 19th. I am proposing to leave it at Derby for a week or two (as I am going abroad and do not want it) and to go back by train in the late afternoon of the 19th. There are various things I wanted to talk to you about and I wondered if you will be free some time that day. I am hoping to bring with me a sample car battery that we have made up with the aircraft filling device which you said you would like to try. Yours sincerely, GRNMinchin | ||
