From George Cupples 7 February 1874
The Cottage | Guard Bridge | Fifeshire. N.B.
(Saty.) Feby. 7/74.
My Dear Mr Darwin,
I got your note this forenoon—with postscript query.1
It so happens that on Monday and during that week I shall have to write at any rate to at least eight or ten gentlemen who are either Deerhd. breeders or fanciers, also propietors of other stock &c—and intelligent men. Today I shall also meet at dinner two or three agricultural people. From all of these I could get their separate answers to the query—which requires care. If you can allow a few days or so, it might be worth while. I shall put the query about all dogs, and besides about other stock.2
In haste yours | George Cupples
