SALES DIRECTOR'S OFFICE. 8th April, 1932. Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ld., DERBY. Attention of Mr. H.E.West. Dear Sirs, Replying to your letter of yesterday's date, Ref. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.2/AD., the two Ammeters under notice were obtained specially from Messrs. Lucas for your goodselves and, as you have now made arrangements to purchase this item direct from Messrs. Lucas, might we respectfully suggest that you approach them in this connection? We put forward this suggestion as, of course, the meters in question are of no use to us and we are quite sure that Messrs. Lucas will be only too pleased to effect the desired exchange. Yours faithfully, For S.SMITH & SONS (Motor Accessories) LTD., 'WST SALES DIRECTOR. RECEIVED 9 APR 1932 | ||
