My dear Sir William,

I have just received yours of the 26th & 27th instant, and I am glad to hear that both you and Mrs. McArthur are improving in health.  In my last letter to you I fear I omitted to express my satisfaction at the report you gave of the Merinos and their increase.  In fact such increase is rarely got from Maiden Ewes.  I do not think I ever had so good a lambing from sheep of their age - 36 out of 40 - is 90 per cent.  This shews that they are healthy and have been well taken care
