| 41256 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wths.28/KW. 17th July, 1936. Messrs. Wellworthy Ltd., Lymington, Hants. Dear Sirs, With reference to your representative's recent visit to these works, we promised to send along to you 12 Pistons which we had hoped to despatch to you the following day. Unfortunately at the moment production is held up for Pistons and we have therefore not been able to get hold of any for despatch. We have been promised the first two sets available, however, but when this will be we cannot definitely say since the Works holiday starts this week-end, but we shall certainly send them along to you at the earliest possible moment. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
