HERRIOT (W. Percy)

Autograph Letter Signed to Alfred Ellis, (1821-1879, second son of John Ellis, Chairman of the Midland Railway), of Belgrave, Leicestershire, wishing he "had received your Letter a few days ago as I killed a very fine Roebuck which I should have had great pleasure in sending", if he can find another "you shall have it in Exchange for the 'Owl' ... I never shoot them, tho' I fear I drove them away ... when I made my new Buildings" and suggesting he get the roebuck "stuffed at Perth, as there is a man there who well understands it ... as Boxes are sometimes long on the Road. I think you will get well through the Meeting notwithstanding the article in the Mercury", with a P.S. "it is a rather better Season for Grouse than the last", 3 sides 8vo., Craiganour, Kinloch Rannoch, Pitlochrie, Perthshire, 6th September
