“3, Athole Crescent, Perth, 10th May, 1876.
“Sir,—Thinking that it may interest you, I take the liberty of writing
to let you know that the ‘Lead’ is not at all in the state you suppose
it to be; but still runs down, very clear, by the side of the North
Inch and past Rose Terrace, and, judging from the numbers of them at
this moment playing by it, affords no small delight to the children.
“I am, yours most respectfully,
“A Reader of ‘Fors.’”
