Dear Robotham,

Many thanks for your letter of the 22nd September.

I will come to Derby on Monday next, 28th September, and will be with you shortly after 11 o'clock.

I do hope that both Mr. Royce and yourself will give me the pleasure of lunching with me on that day, more especially as it is the last time I shall be calling upon you at Derby as a representative of the IndiaProduction 20 HP. with 4-speed box and Front Wheel Brakes Tyre & Rubber Co., as I have been offered, and accepted, another appointment elsewhere.

Much looking forward to seeing you.

Yours sincerely,

Rothes-
