Letter to Henry John Elwes from James Cossar Ewart, 17 October 1912
Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/18/67
Scope and Contents
Ewart writes that the embargo on transporting sheep and cattle between England and Scotland will be lifted in a few days. He thinks he may get the use of one of the islands in the Forth for sheep that are too wild for fences. He asks whether Elwes knows the Ryeland breed of sheep, as it has been suggested that he should put some to the 'Siberian' ram.
