Description:
‘Dear Mr Pearson,
May I ask whether you could manage to keep your dog indoors at night – if there is no other way of mitigating the torment of his incessant barking at that season? I am sorry to have to write to you about it, but can no longer avoid doing so. Last night was the worst we have yet had. It[?] began before midnight & went on steadily till morning, during which time neither my wife not I got a wink of sleep. My servants who sleep on the garden side of the house also complain very much. I am quite unfit for work today in consequence of last night’s experiences. I feel sure you will appreciate the necessity I am under of writing to you on this subject, & that you will try to find some effective remedy for the trouble.
Yours truly,
T.W. Rolleston.’
