SOME yorkshirp: shorthorns. 281 



Gratification by M.C. (31896), dam Gerty Srd, 

 by Knight of the Shire (26552), g. dam Gerty 

 by Vain Hope (23102) is the ancestress of many 

 good females at Manor House, as well as of 

 Glad Tidings and Gratia, and a strong family 

 likeness exists in the tribe. A yearling daughter 

 of the old cow by Lively Star, is a lengthy heifer, 

 full of style and quality, a rich colour and with a 

 beautiful fore end. 



Amongst her other descendants are a bull by 

 Royal George, out of a daughter of Gratia by 

 E-iby Star, a lengthy straight calf and full of 

 promise ; a rich roan heifer calf by Lord 

 Advocate (a white bull), out of a daughter of 

 Gratification ; a great wealthy heifer, Avith a 

 particularly sweet head, by Royal George out of 

 Gladness by British Knight ; and a useful roan 

 bull by Riby Star, the last calf this grand old 

 cow produced. Then of the same tribe we saw 

 a nice level young cow by Riby Star out of 

 Gratia, and another out of Lady Greta ; and finally 

 White Gladness, by British Knight out of 

 Gratification, a nice thick cow, well fieshed and 

 with a mossy coat, was introduced to our 

 notice. 



Mr. Hutchinson was a large buyer at the 

 Killerby sale, when the fine herd of cattle owned 

 by his friend, the late Mr. J. B. Booth, was dis- 

 persed. Here he purchased that lovely cow 

 Princess Royal, for the big sum of 335 guineas.
