Dear "Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}",

This is just to confirm the telegram I sent you this morning, reading:

"Please return immediately air mail "file ammunition lent urgent",

which will be self-explanatory, and now await the return of this file as soon as possible.

With best thanks in advance,

Yours sincerely,
