| TO W. A.{Mr Adams} Robottam, Esq. (Rolls-Royce Ltd.) 2. DATE 29-5-35. If you have any of the used oil left, which was taken from this particular car, we would be pleased to have a sample and do a thorough investigation upon it, because we would like to know the real cause even if the blame rests finally upon the fuel used. I will advise you of any information I receive from the States as soon as they reply to my letter. I hope to come up to Derby in the near future, but will let you know beforehand. With kind regards, Yours sincerely, [Signature of F.R. Banks] FRB/BB [Watermark: RAGLONE MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN] | ||
