4. Spook’s 3rd litter arrived on 26th Feb./12 & consisted of 3 bitches all cream coloured. Two died within 24 hours & have albinotic eyes.
The remaining pup was & I hope still is doing well.
I forgot whether Spook was to mate with Idiot [sic] this time, but shall hear soon from Dr Howie & shall let you know.

Yours sincerely,
