Dear Roy{Sir Henry Royce}, In reply to your letter about Bentley publicity, I enclose my letter together with addressed envelope for you to forward. I consider that the letter as you have written it is very much too much of a trade affair and not the sort of letter that would be written by a satisfied owner. He would have more to say about his own car and I have therefore written a second letter which you will also find enclosed, which strikes me as a better way to start the ball rolling. With this letter, there is also a would-be humourous drawing which may help to call attention to the correspondence. Please use which ever letter you like. Yours sincerely, Tom.
