Sent from Charles Howard Usher
3 Nov 1912
Description:
‘Dear Mr Nettleship,
The second litter of Pompek x Pompek has arrived 2 black ♀ & an albino ♂. In the two litters every pup has a white patch on its chest. It occurs in the albino male whose coat in other respects is exactly like the pekinese albinos. His nose is long thus resembling the pom;- the black coats, some if not all, have faint red tint. The mortality is disappointing. The litter of 5 came 4 days too early.
Yrs. sincerely,
C.H. Usher.’
[enclosed with above: envelope containing 6 photographs of dead pups. ‘Usher’s Pompeks. The dead litters. Enlargements. Recd. Nov. 1912.’]
