Sent from Ethel J. Renton
7 Nov 1911
Description:
‘...
You are quite right as to James Dawkins he was b. in 1722 and was an elder brother of the Henry who married Lady J. Colyear[?] and whose eldest son also James assumed the name of Colyear[?], his [i.e.] James’ daughter Caroline died in 1857 and it is in her will that might be of assistance as she left her estates to the Portmore illegitimate children.
I am quite sure Eleanor (baby) would love the little dog but I scarecly like to accept such a valuable pet if you do send him every possible care shall be taken of him and perhaps you would say if he requires any special diet.
