Blunt advises Ewart to purchase a mare that is currently at Luckington in Wiltshire and informs Ewart of Blunt's forthcoming horse sale.

Blunt quotes from an article he is writing for the Encyclopaedia of Sport where he discusses the possible origins of the species of Arabian wild horse called 'Kehailan'. He asks if he Ewart can direct him to any of his (Ewart's) publications about this case which he can cite in the article.

Blunt lists 20 thoroughbred arab foals that he has bred at his horse farm and would like to offer one as a gift to Ewart. It has strong zebra markings and Blunt believes it would prove useful for Ewart's experiments.

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.

Cockerell states that he wishes he could conduct experiments on horses in New Mexico as the conditions are very favourable. He mentions that Wilfred Blunt is also of the opinion that the native American horse may have lived to Columbian times. At present he is looking for mixed blood in the skulls of American horses. He points out that the old horses of Europe also had large heads. He also adds that he has found a copy of an aboriginal pictograph representing a man on a horse.
