Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of April 12th and we will return the sample steering gear to you immediately after the Easter Holiday. We have had an enormous rush of business to get out during the last 10 days, which has unfortunately prevented us completing this special order as rapidly as we should have wished. We shall, however, get the gear back into your hands within the next one or two days which we hope will be in time for your requirements. Yours faithfully, For CAM GEARS LIMITED, R.{Sir Henry Royce} Pentony Director. p 41 | ||
