| Copy of letter from:- THE FULTON COMPANY, Knoxville, Tennessee, U.S.A. December 15, 1922. Rolls-Royce Ltd., Nightingale Road, Derby, England. Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}9/NJ201122. Attention Mr. J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} W. Whitehead. Gentlemen, Replying to your letter of November 20, addressed to our London representatives, Messrs. Delco-Remy Ltd., relative to three shutter thermostats which you are sending to us to fill with charging liquid, we have just received these three assemblies and will have our Experimental Department charge them so that they will operate as near to the range you specify, 75° to 85°C, as possible. We will not charge you anything for doing this work, but we presume that it will be necessary to render you an invoice for each instrument so that you can get them through the Customs in England. We do not expect you to pay such invoice as we may render. Yours very truly, THE FULTON COMPANY. (Sgd) R.M.Hodge. Automotive Sales Division. RMHodge/RM.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
