Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Charles Edward Fagan, 05 March 1907
Fagan informs Ewart that the Trustees of the British Museum have appointed Ewart Lecturer on the Swiney Foundation for that year and approve his subject 'Horses of the Past and Present'. He asks Ewart for information on when he will come to London and for him to submit a syllabus.
Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Edwin Ray Lankester, 12 February 1907
Lankester writes that he would like to have the Sarawak horse's skull for the British Museum, as well as some Roman horses. He asks Ewart if he would give the Swiney lectures on 'the history and palaeontology of horses' or 'horses of the past and present', as Scharff has postponed giving them until the following year. Lankester states that he believes the preorbital depression in the modern horse's skull once held a gland.
