341 



Mr. Wriglit's Turkeys weiglied 41^- lbs., Mr. Fellowes 

 39| lbs. 



The Omamenial Water Foivl all belonged to Mr. Baker — 

 Black Swans, Berwick Geese, and Bahama Teal. 



There was the largest show we have yet had of Golden 

 and Silver Pheixsants. Mr. Yates and Master Welsh took 

 the prizes. Among the Various Pheasants were Chinese, 

 and some good Kaluges. It would be unfair not to notice, 

 among the Extra Stock, some Jungle Fowls belonging to 

 Mr. Baker, very beautiiul and perfect bii'ds. 



AU went off well, and we congratulate Mr. Houghton on 

 his deserved success. Nothing can exceed his painstaking 

 and his anxiety to do his duty strictly. The number of 

 entries and the quality of the bu-ds shown prove that amateurs 

 appreciate the Exhibition, and have entire conhdence in the 

 management.
