1011 66 G/Cam/CA.15/JM.{Mr Morley}6.3.37 Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Further to your memo Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}2/R.4.3.37, instructing for an order to be issued to Dunlop Rubber Co. Ltd., for 4 - 7.50 x 18 Covers complete with Tubes, which Dunlop's sent direct to Mr. Symons at Nairobi. Please note, Dunlop's have charged us with 6 Covers complete with Tubes and not 4. At the same time, we also have an invoice from Dunlop's dated 1st. instant for 4 Covers and Tubes 7.50 x 18, which appear to have been sent here. In this case, they say the necessary instructions were given by telephone. If you agree Dunlop's charges are correct, no doubt you will issue revised instructions. G/Cam. [signature] | ||
