Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Papers and Proceedings and Report of the Royal Society of Tasmania, for 1877
I write to ask you to favour me with a complete printed copy of your proceedings containing the able paper of Mr. John Swan, on this topic, together with any other facts in your possession relative to the introduction, culture, and breeding of the Angora in your country. It is an object of great interest to me and to California, and I wish the facts for preservation and dissemination. In return for the courtesy I will be glad to mail to your address some publications on this industry in this country, which I hope will be found of interest. I will of course pay, besides, any charges there may be on the papers you may send, when the same shall have been ascertained.
I have written Mr. Swan, in your care, to the same effect. I am, etc., etc., H. G. Otis, Editor. The secretary read a paper On some South Australian Polyzoa, by F. W. Hutton, Esq, Director of the Museum, Dunedin; and in connection with it the following note from Professor R. Tate, of Adelaide, was also read 4 Buxton-street, Adelaide, 17th Novr., 1876.
