Sent from Charles Howard Usher
3 Apr 1913
Description:
‘Dear Pearson,
Spool x Prince Litter.
I have just seen them now for the first time and enclose a few notes. You see she has had 5 pups & none are chocolate.
Fraoch dhu, the measurements are disconcerting and I must try again. The nose, I know, is long, for it attracts attention. There are no errors in my notes, so either this last measurement is quite correct or else I have made a big blunder in reading off the measurement.
There was no difficulty whatsoever in taking the measurements, whereas when they were first made it must be remembered that he (Froach dhu) was a young pup, that the jaw breadth was taken at a later date than the other measurements, and also that these were I believe the first measurements made by me so I would be inclined to accept these later measurements. I shall hope to see Froach again to-morrow.
Yrs. sincerely,
C.H. Usher.’
