This, dear Dr Dyer, is from the Principal of the Veterinary College here;2 so that you will see that I could as yet not send the Report.3 I am one of the Hon. Examiners at the College.

Regardfully

Always your

‘Report of the Result of Experiments Conducted at the Melbourne Veterinary College with the View of Ascertaining the Nature and Cause of Epizootic Blindness in Horses in the Darling District, N.S.W.’, undated (University of Melbourne Archives, Kendall, William Tyson and Kendall, Ernest Arthur, 1/5). The report concludes that the blindness is probably caused by the native tobacco, Nicotiana suaviolens . No evidence of publication of the report has been found.
