Cecil writes that both the brown calves are Jerseys and that Ewart is welcome to have them. He remarks on the colouring of Chillingham cattle and speculates on the true source of the Vaynol blood.

Cecil writes that the Chartley-Vaynol bull has set three Highland cows again and he now wishes to send the bull away although he is reluctant to have it killed.

Frieda Cecil finishes the rest of the letter after her husband has been called away. On behalf of Lord Cecil she offers to bull to Ewart if Cadzow won't take him, as well as two brown calves, and makes arrangements with Ewart about staying with him.

Wickham writes that Ewart and his wife would be welcome to stay with him before visiting the Chartley cattle as well as the cattle at Vaynol. He also mentions that Colonel Congreve would like to meet him and asks Ewart to confirm the date of his arrival.
