Re. your memo. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/12/JH.19.1.40, in order that you may arrange with Mr. Worth, I shall be in the works at Derby this weekend, i.e. Saturday, 27th, Sunday, 28th, and Monday, 29th.

If convenient, Saturday morning would be most suitable to me, as on Monday I am obtaining information for layout of strip and assembly shop.
