Dear Mr. Smith, Mr. Robotham is still away on holiday, and I am writing to thank you for your letter of the 11th September saying that you do not mind supplying us with a V.8 axle, and also to thank you for the tool costs for the axle tubes. We should very much like to have the axle complete with hubs and wheels. Before sending you an official order I should like to make sure that you do not mind supplying these extra parts. Yours sincerely, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
