Letter to James Cossar Ewart from James N. Forsyth, 20 May 1904

 Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/10/53

Scope and Contents

Forsyth reports that the other members of the Congested Districts Board are complimentary about Ewart's proposed Report on Ponies, although because parts of it have already appeared in the Transactions of the Highland and Agricultural Society, they do not wish to publish it. He hopes that the pony 'Atholl' has arrived in South Uist.

Biographical / Historical

Forsyth's reference to the 'Report on Ponies' probably denotes the work which partly informed Ewart's paper 'The Multiple Origin of Horses and Ponies' which was printed in the Transactions of the Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland, Volume 16, (1904), pp.266-267.
