Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Henry Fairfield Osborn, 28 August 1904
Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/10/92
Scope and Contents
Osborn thanks Ewart for his visit to Penicuik and asks him for some glass slides and photographs. He recommends that when Ewart visits the British Museum again he studies the hoofs of Onohippidium as they resemble a zebra more than an ass or horse. He asks Ewart to procure him a hoof of an ass or Przewalski's horse if he is able.
