| X1031 T.M. Coventry, 6, Grosvenor Mansions, Buxton. 20th. May 1925. Dear Sir, I regret not having confirmed the arrangement made during our interview at Derby, but I was called away for two or three days. After further consideration of your application I feel that it would not serve any useful purpose to send you questions to answer. It is essential that the Assistant I require should have had special training and have made a study of high speed Petrol Engines. I am sorry to have to disappoint you. Yours truly, | ||
