Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Henry Fairfield Osborn, 02 February 1921
Scope and Contents
Osborn writes that he has not heard from Ewart for years, despite his own letters to him. He reminds him about his promise of securing the original Celtic horse as the type specimen of Equus caballus celticus for the Museum. He reports that the little stallion Ewart sent to the Museum shows around 95% Celtic characters, and enquires whether Ewart knows of a pure little Celtic mare they could import for breeding purposes. He has been corresponding with Breuil about his forthcoming work on the cave drawings of the Combarelles.
