| 646 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.2/MH.{M. Huckerby} 29th. December 1937. Messrs. Jonas Woodhead & Sons Ltd., Kirkstall Road, Leeds,4. For the attention of Mr. Sanders. Dear Sirs, Thank you for your letter of the 22nd. We are very pleased to have received the first pair of springs, and have managed quite satisfactorily over the bushes. We note you have not supplied the type of lubricator as shown on the latest drawing, and would like to know which type you would prefer to use. Can you please let us know when the remaining pairs of springs will arrive? We presume that there are 8 more similar pairs on order, all having the up turned rear eyes. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
