A short handwritten note of January 3, 1940, on a "From the desk of R. B. Davis" slip, to Mr. Casey (W. E. Casey in the index) of Raybestos-Manhattan. As far as it can be read, it asks Casey to return the attached note and says that "RBD suggests that you make improvements wherever possible in anticipation of Dr. Gray's visit," meaning the coming inspection by Dr. Albert S. Gray of the Connecticut Department of Health.
