Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Heatley Noble, 13 April 1912

 Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/18/22
Scope and Contents

Noble confirms that the four-horned wether has been killed, and he will send Ewart the head, skin and fore quarter, although the quality of mutton is not good. Carl Hagenbeck has answered his enquiry and stated that he has never come across a breed in North Africa which could be inferred to be the ancestors of the English type.
