Sydney N.S.Wales Jan 13 1805

Sir,

I have the honor to transmit to you the drawing of a Ram, which I bred in this Colony. His Excellency Governor King has wrote to you upon this Subject, and expressed what my wishes are in sending the drawing of fleeces to England. As Mr Robt Campbell who has done me the honor to take Charge of the drawing, will shortly return again to N.S.Wales, it would be a favourable opportunity for me to have two Rams sent out by him and permission be obtained to ship them. We have got the Spanish, South-down and Tees-water Breed already; tho not general.
