| Transcript | Queens Chambers Pirie St. Adelaide Dec. 1st 1891 My dear Mother Just a line to say that I was on some cases at Kapunda last Friday, where I saw Eugene, who seems to be thriving. He showed me photos of the Punch Bowel[!], with Agnes and the Hunters in perspective. If the amateur has any to spare they would be acceptable to me. The old spots have not lost their hold upon affection yet. I think I saw one of Sam also. If there are any recent ones of 'those who were youngsters in my time, you might send me copies. My photos are limited to horses, generally taken by an amateur who uses the same stables. I send you the last of Cadger, which shows you that the one you have is a libel on him.

With love to all Your affectionate Son P. McM. Glynn |
