Derby, England

Dear Robotham:

Thanks for your cable about the Gray matter. We have been granted a favorable chassis delivery, and are building a body ourselves to fill the order. Unfortunately, to build one of our bodies to fill it is not profitable, but we are most anxious to get Mr. Gray's business, so we are going right ahead and hope that we shall get the chassis as promised, approximately the end of this month.

Hope you enjoyed your trip back. It was nice to have you with us, and I hope it won't be three years before you take your next trip over. I also hope it is in the cards for me to go to England, because I certainly have counted on doing this for many years.

With kind regards to you and Elliott, I am

Cordially yours,

J.S. Inskip
