Sir,
You will notice by the enclosed card that we are holding an "Anti-Cruel Sport" meeting at Truro, on the 22nd. Would you send us a message of sympathy to be read at the meeting.
I enclose a report of a meeting held at [Exeter].
Yrs faithfully
Draft reply by Thomas Hardy

You have all my sympathy in protesting against cruel sports; but I fear that the human race has emerged so little yet from a state of savagery that not much can be done.
