| Ey Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}6/KW. 31st October, 1935. M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Olley, Esq., The Cadillac Motor Car Co., Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A. Dear Cy, We were very sorry not to see you at Olympia. Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}, whom you will remember from West WitteringHenry Royce's home town days, and Grylls, whom you met when you were in Derby, are making a short trip to the United States before Christmas. They are sailing on the "Britannic" which leaves on Wednesday next, the 6th November, and should be in Detroit about the 17th or 18th November. They are hoping to get back before Christmas, so will not have very much time at their disposal. We shall be very grateful to you for anything you can do for them. I know that you are very busy, but possibly you could hand them on to the most useful people dealing with the problems which they would like to discuss. Kind regards to Mrs. Olley. Yours sincerely, | ||
