Scope and Contents Osborn writes concerning his forthcoming trip to England and asks if he might meet with Ewart at Woburn Abbey when he will be visiting the Duke of Bedford. He mentions that he will see Ewart's zebra hybrids in St Louis in the autumn and that he will send Ewart a photograph of Neohipparion, 'the most deerlike horse yet discovered'. He states that he will be requiring some images from Ewart to illustrate his lecture series on the evolution of the horse at Columbia...

Osborn thanks Ewart for his visit to Penicuik and asks him for some glass slides and photographs. He recommends that when Ewart visits the British Museum again he studies the hoofs of Onohippidium as they resemble a zebra more than an ass or horse. He asks Ewart to procure him a hoof of an ass or Przewalski's horse if he is able.

Ridgeway responds to some of Ewart's comments on his proofs by writing that he will check the details of the zebra hybrid, and enquires about the date Spanish blood was introduced into the Hebrides in the eighteenth century. He reports that he has written to Osborn at the Carnegie Trust in favour of Ewart's grant proposal and that he will source some other potential funders while he is in Ireland.
