Letter to James Cossar Ewart from Henry John Elwes, 19 April 1915

 Item
Identifier: Coll-14/9/21/9
Scope and Contents

Elwes enquires whether Ewart thinks it worthwhile to import any sheep from the Faroes, and if so, could Lord Bute or Cowan take them, as he has no room. He refers to a letter from a Mrs Taylor which mentions crossing a fox-coloured ram with a black ewe. He reports that Ewart's Blackfaces are the most profitable of his sheep so far, except for their wool. He will be selling the remainder of Ewart's hoggs.

Dates: 19 April 1915
