Your Royal Highness

I owe you many apologies for not having written to you before to report the result of my examination of the dead Reeves pheasant. I found that the cause of death was acute inflammation of the lungs in other respects the bird was quite healthy I head from Mr. Menzies that the other pheasants are at Sandpit and dying. They should at once be removed to a dryer and a warmer place or I fear you loose more of them

Yours most
obedient and obliged
