Letter to Alexander Macdonald of Kepplestone from William Brodie, 21 November 1871 Letter to Alexander Macdonald of Kepplestone from William Brodie, St. Helen's, Cambridge Street, Edinburgh, glad that Macdonald is honouring someone who has done so much for Aberdeen, if he had to choose between a portrait by Sir Francis Grant and one by George Reid he would choose Reid's, as regards the bust he can visit Sir Alexander or see him in Edinburgh, he would like to vote in support of the scheme but not if it looks as if he is fishing for work, but regardless, the portrait should be by Reid, 21 November 1871 21 November 1871
