This letter is about overseas representation for The Flying Dogtor. It describes the program as follows: The Flying Dogtor looks after bush animals in the similar manner as The Flying Doctor looks after humans. The Flying Dogtor is the hero and Carson Carpetbag is the villain.The Flying Dogtor series was broadcast on Australian Television Network (later becoming the Seven Network) between February and April 1964.Typewritten, one page

The letter writer G. R. Locke has read Robin Boyd's newspaper articles on early public buildings and homes. This letter tells Boyd about the historic home "Auburn House", 4 Goodall St Hawthorn, established for Robert Hepburn with land purchased in 1856. It also tells of the confusion with neighbouring house "Auburn Lodge". Since Boyd writes on early Melbourne public buildings and homes, the writer is inviting Boyd to view the house. It is not known whether Robin Boyd took up the invitation. In 1960 it was included in the National Trust Register.
