CAXTON HOUSE, WESTMINSTER, IN REPLY PLEASE REFER TO B1/MSD. LONDON, S.W.1. 22nd December, 1933. W.A.Robotham Esq., Messrs Rolls Royce Ltd., Derby. Dear Sir, Further to your letter of the 30th November in which you advised that Mr.Coverly would be sailing for the United States on the BERENGARIA, as advised in our letter of the 4th instant we asked our friends in New York to meet Mr. Coverly and render all assistance possible. We have just received a letter from them stating that a member of their staff met the BERENGARIA but was informed that Mr.Coverly was not on board. We can only think, therefore, that his visit has been delayed and we should be glad if you would kindly advise us whether he will accompany you on the BRITTANIC when you sail on the 30th instant. With thanks in anticipation. Yours faithfully, VACUUM OIL COMPANY LIMITED. [Signature] Manager. Manufacturers' Service Division. SNGH/SJK Mobiloil AND THE WORLD-WIDE ORGANIZATION OF THE VACUUM OIL COMPANY ARE ALWAYS AT YOUR SERVICE | ||
