Rolls-Royce Ltd: Nightingale Road, DERBY. ATTENTION OF MR. FOWLER CLARK. Dear Sirs, Our attention has been called to the correspondence dated the 21st inst., and the 24th inst., between you and our London House with regard to Starter Motors. If you would be good enough to indicate a suitable day and time, the writer will be pleased to come to Derby to further discuss the matter with you. In the meantime, a reference to your Captain Hallam will doubtless result in your obtaining a certain amount of the information with regard to our "Z" type machines, in which is incorporated the action to which you refer. We have still to satisfy Captain Hallam with regard to the physical disposition of the terminals, and we are hoping in the course of a few posts, to put designs before him which will meet with his approval.
