Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Charles Maitland Penham Burn, 26 November 1906
Burn writes that it was the dam mare and not the filly that is without corns, and provides some details about the horse.
Letter to James Cossar Ewart from George A. Oliphant, 01 March 1911

Letter to James Cossar Ewart from James N. Forsyth, 02 April 1908
Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Sir Claud Alexander, 25 May 1914
Alexander asks whether Ewart wishes to purchase a Mysore bull from him. He is lame but well-behaved, and Alexander would take £10 to save him from going to the butcher. He reports that his filly was hard to handle but is settling down, while her dam should foal soon although she has not wintered well and looks in poor condition. He complains that his pair of Pallas's cats are not healthy.
Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Wilfrid Scawen Blunt, 03 October 1903
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.
Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Wilfrid Scawen Blunt, 02 September 1898
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.
