  <dc:title>Letter from James Hay Beattie to Montagu Beattie</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Letter from James Hay Beattie, Peterhead, to Montagu Beattie, saying that he received Montagu's letter; talking about Montagu's study of Latin grammar at school and his handwriting.  Letter mentions the return of the Greenland ships in July and consequently of Mr Wilson.  James Hay writes that their father's hand is better, but he still suffers from rheumatism, and his stomach is not completely well.  Letter says James Beattie intends to leave Peterhead in the middle of next week and will go to Pananich.  James Hay asks for a more detailed account of what Montagu has learned at school in his next letter.</dc:description>
