DERBY.
Dear Robotham,
Thank you for your letter of the 30th July, from which I note you would like some information on our times of finished aluminium castings, both sand and die types. I am having some figures prepared for you, which I trust will be sufficiently representative to enable you to form a comparison between the Leyland castings and your own jobs. Should this information not be available in time to forward with this letter, I will have it sent to you as early as possible.
Yours faithfully,
