15th. March, 1939.

Messrs. Ferodo Ltd.,
Chapel-en-le-Frith.

For the attention of Mr. Longley.

Dear Sirs,

We thank you for your letter promising the return of the brake shoes we inadvertently left behind on our last visit, we also regret we have made a mistake in thinking you had two other pairs of shoes because as you state we only sent you the linings.

We should however like to have a report on whether these linings have been overheated or not.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
