Sent from Mrs Douglas Murray
12 Oct 1911
Description:
‘Dear Mr Nettleship,
Please excuse the delay but I have been [away] from home. I thought it best to attend to the combing of the two specimens that you require myself. I regret that I cannot send Pao Chen’s hairs as he is no longer mine but I send Roma & Pulaeu Yen’s.
I am sorry I cannot entertain your proposal to mate my old Roma but it is very uncertain whether I can breed from her again. You know her head is down a little on one side & she is a heinous[?] old lady – but we are very fond of her.
I remain yours very truly,
[illeg.] Douglas Murray.’
