Sent from Charles Howard Usher
Description:‘... [re: notes on birds; enclosing list of albino birds in natural history museum in Hamburg (not present); enclosing reply to letter from Usher to Kraepelin (not present)]]...
Dogs’ photos. Nearly all are poor. The Strathdon lot [of dogs are] 50 miles from here. I tried [photographing them] one wet Sunday, but I got nothing satisfactory. A local photographer has since tried, but the only one he has sent is the mounted one. I am therefore sending some of the attempts made on the wet Sunday such as they are [not present]. The black pup is one of the Edinburgh lot & was photographed by Dr H. Howard Jones, if any of his photos are used kindly acknowledge them. He sent photos of 2 other Edinburgh dogs, but I sent them to Mr. N. when the duplicate prints come I shall send them. Mairi bahn is here, another attempt must be made for her photo is very poor. Cyclops had an inflamed eye which we had to remove.
Yours sincerely,
C.H. Usher.’
