Letter From South Africa

Letter From South Africa

Dear

Mr O'Flaherty.

This is to express my thanks and appreciation for sending me your interesting publication. It was a great triumph for your breeding industry to do what your horses have done in Australia. I know what pleasure the deeds of Colorado King and Hawaii in the USA gave to us, and perhaps more particularly to me who bred Hawaii dam.

If I can be of any assistance to you please do not hesitate to convey your needs. Your exports here have done well. Recently Miss Lindeman (Marazion-Blue Flight) has run up a sequence of four wins at the Cape.

I hope our Springbok Rugby footballers will not meet with too much hostility on their visit to your country. I am sure they are a very good side who will give good entertainment if afforded the opportunity. With politics what they are and Demos leaning heavily towards Communism anything can happen.

With best wishes.

A.L.Robertson.
