Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd.,
DERBY.

For the attention of Mr. C. S. Steadman

Dear Sirs,

Reverting to your letter of the 12th November, we have finalised our designs for an air conditioning equipment for car use, which is an advance on the combined heater and defroster unit, the subject of our previous correspondence.

The writer will be in the vicinity of Derby on Wednesday next, December 7th, and should be glad to learn whether it would be convenient if he called in to discuss this matter with you, and show you our designs, at about 11 o'clock in the morning.

Perhaps you would be kind enough to confirm that this will be convenient.

Yours faithfully,

THE POWER PLANT COMPANY, LIMITED.

R.{Sir Henry Royce} Kenneth McLeod,
Manager, Chevroc Dept.
