  <dc:title>Letter to Alexander Macdonald of Kepplestone from J.C. Hook, R.A.</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Letter dated 16 August 1878 to Macdonald from J.C. Hook, R.A., Portsoy, thanking for payment, hamper and Kumel: 'How I wished to stop some of Dizzy's income tax and with it to have run Portsoy breakwater a quarter of a mile out seawards but the money is wanted to buy quinine for our fever stricken soldiers … or to paste some more tinsel on to the crown of the 'Empress' … I shall be getting into prison for contempt of the coming Imperialism'.</dc:description>
