I will never be party to any thing that way. There is two of Domett's sons here now. The young one came here about a month ago. A perfect pest he has been. Told several times to go but I get all the work out of him I can so that as we are so very busy about the shed he cooks and several other jobs. We had three wild dogs among the sheep for the first time two days ago but fortunately they did not do much damage. They killed one ewe and two lambs. I saw them some time ago and poisoned the run & sent them on horse back after them yesterday and fortunately killed two of them and the other has not been seen today and likely never will. I mentioned about the home people in my letter the other day. Please remember me kindly to Jessy and Aunty, also to Mr Strang & my dear little Douglas. Tell him his Lala Mouts is broken in now and a beautiful mear. Hoping you will pay us a visit. I remain your affectionate brother Archibald John McLean
