Letter to Henry John Elwes from James Cossar Ewart, 12 August 1912
Letter to Henry John Elwes from James Cossar Ewart, 26 May 1913
Ewart reports that the Board of Agriculture see no reason why someone should not be sent to purchase all the sheep that may be rented by him and others, but they are reluctant to move towards forming a Shetland sheep society.
Letter to Henry John Elwes from James Cossar Ewart, 29 September 1913
Ewart writes that he has written about the 'Murrayshire' sheep which he heard about at the Board of Agriculture. Ten Shetland fleeces and some Soay-Southdown wool have been sent to Sanderson. He asks Elwes to return the Soay-Southdown and the Siberian fleeces sent to the Bristol show as they belong to the University.
Letter to James Cossar Ewart from James Wood, with draft of Ewart's reply on the verso, 16-18 October 1916
Wood provides details of the two grants paid by the Board for the maintenance of sheep at Fairslacks and states that no further grant has been made.
Ewart's reply, dated 18 October 1916, requests Wood to supply him with the amounts paid between February and May 1914 and May and August 1914, which will allow him to make an appeal to the Factor to complete his statement.
