Rolls-Royce, Ltd., DERBY. Dear Robotham, Enclosed is a copy of a letter from Mr. Morley. It seems that you entirely neglected my request that we should not be brought into the matter directly or by inference. If you want us to go on co-operating with you in this way, it is very necessary that you should pay attention to requests of this sort, because we obviously do not want to be dragged into an affair which is entirely yours. Yours sincerely, [Signature: M C Wilks] P.S. We are enclosing a copy of our original letter to Mr. Morley turning down his application, and a copy of our letter replying to his letter of May. 5th. ENCL: Letter. | ||
