Sent from Karl Pearson
16 Jun 1909
Description:
‘Dear Nettleship,
Tong. She has made herself quite at home & given no Trouble with howling at night. She is not, I think, in a very healthy condition – perhaps the change has affected her. However I shall see what can be done to improve that. Her coat gives her a good deal of trouble. We have washed her, but I think it is rather full of nits, and it will want a good deal of washing before we get rid of them altogether. Do you think that a plentiful supply of Keating[?] rubbed into her coat, would do her damage in the way of licking herself?
Albinism. I am afraid I must leave to you the decision. I should be rather sorry to see a prior publication. Not so much on account of the appearance of the pedigrees as because 5 or 6 must be selected material and any inference you may draw from these once in print will be taken as representing at least your view on the whole subject.
Yours very sincerely,
Karl Pearson.
I will get a Vet. to look a Tong, if her extreme irritability of skin does not pass off in a few days after another washing.’
