Copy of a letter to Sir William [Turner] from James Cossar Ewart, 10 May 1912
Ewart asks Turner whether the University Court would consider appointing a committee to investigate the question of providing facilities for animal breeding experiments along the lines of the work being carried out by Darbishire. He provides annual costings for the experiments at Fairslacks, and mentions that the Farm Committee of the East of Scotland College of Agriculture has asked Ewart on what terms he should be prepared to hand over the farm to them for a year.
Letter to Henry John Elwes from James Cossar Ewart, 12 August 1912
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.
