Dear Madam,
We are very anxious to procure, with your
permission, a series of Cinematograph pictures of
yourself at home with your pet snakes.
These pictures would be published in
our well-known weekly Interest film "EVE & EVERYBODY'S
FILM REVIEW", which deals entirely with Women's
Activities.
Any day that is convenient to you would
suit us - weather permitting of course - and if
you are engaged during the week, Saturday or Sunday
would be quite convenient for us to take this film.
Thanking you in anticipation of your kind
permission.
Yours faithfully,
Patrice

My dear Sir
On my arrival here yesterday my son [John] Fuller Meyrick [Keeper] had just shot an Eagle on the rocks by the sea side within about a mile from his House. It was in the act of eating a Rabbit when he shot him, and unluckily he fell in the sea which has wetted his Feathers and the Retriever had a very difficult matter bringing him to the shore - I shall send him up by the coach this day as the Zoological Society may like to have him stuffed, the only time I have heard of one being shot or seen in Anglesey was about 60 years ago. I should like to have a line from you if it is the common Eagle which they have in Scotland, or is it a Sea Eagle. I received your letter about the Hare, I killed it adjoining a large Wood, I understand it had been seen constantly before by my Bailiff who could not make out whether it was a Hare or a Rabbit, the colour being different from either Hare or Rabbit.
Believe me to be
My dear Sir
Your most obedient Servt.
