Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Sir Claud Alexander, 25 May 1914

 Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/20/8
Scope and Contents

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.
