Sent from Alice Lloyd Murray Dew-Smith
28 Jun 1911
Description:
‘Dear Ned.
The puppies’ eyes are that sort of “powder blue” that kittens have. The whites are a little bloodshot which gives them a look of being ‘shot’ with violet. Their noses are quite black – as are their faces for the most part. The elder & bigger is a dark brindle - very much the colour of that French bull-dog with white front paws you had. The younger is a fawn like the father. I do hope you will come & see them & pull their hairs out yourself!
I think I shall keep one, & possibly let Ethel have the other, unless I get a good offer for it. I am looking forward to L on the 12th. That place on the back is probably what you said (a suffusion). A sort of ‘seat’ is coming up as the hair grows & the skin is all right underneath.
Yrs,
A.M.D.’
