W.A.Robotham,Esq.,
Messrs.Rolls-Royce Limited,
Derby.

Dear Mr.Robotham,

With further reference to my letter of the 18th instant, I should be glad if you could fix a date when I could see you at Derby, so that you could tell me in detail what the difficulties are, and so enable me to consider the possibility of putting forward an alternative scheme to the one we have suggested to meet Mr.Hives's views.

Two days notice would be sufficient for me to make the necessary visit.

I feel sure that it is possible to come to an arrangement agreeable to both parties.

With kind regards,

Yours sincerely,

H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Sammons

HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/PET.
