Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Wilfrid Scawen Blunt, 03 October 1903

 Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/8/78
Scope and Contents

Blunt reassures Ewart that he has not lost interest in his experiments and discoveries. He believes that the four varieties of horse distinguished by differences in their callosites is very important. He is pleased the grey arab given as a filly, has proved useful to Ewart and states that he will be unable to supply a friend of Ewart's with a bay Arabian mare due to the great demand for Arabian horses in the colonies.

Blunt replies to Ewart's acceptance of the gift of a filly. He encloses details of the filly's breeding. He also enquires in what published work he could find details of the fossil of the horse as originally traced by Huxley and Marsh, as he is hoping to begin a genealogy of the Arabian horse.
