SHORTHORN HERDS OF ENGLAND. 61 



beautiful group which would do great credit to any herd, and to any 

 sire ; with the exception of a Waterloo, they are all by Baron Oxford 

 12th, the light, roan from Empress of Oxford 2nd, being particularly 

 grand in front, but the Oxfords are both very straight and good 

 throughout. 



The Waterloos are largely represented, both in numbers (19), 

 and merit, the Lady Waterloos came into Northumberland first to 

 Sir Walter C. Trevelyan's, and when at the dispersion of the herd 

 after his death in 1879, six of the tribe were purchased of three 

 different branches for Capheaton, so with Lady Waterloo 23rd, a 

 light roan, by 7th Duke of York, bought at Mr. Wm. Angerstein's 

 sale in September 1876, along with her white heifer by 3rd Duke 

 of Claro, the tribe had a good start given it which it has maintained. 

 Lady Waterloo 23rd, still reigns the matron of the family, and at 

 her decease the last daughter of the ever memorable 7th Duke of 

 York will cease to exist. Lady Waterloo 37th, out of a 9th Duke 

 of Geneva cow, is next in seniority of this branch, and along with 

 her, is her daughter, Lady Waterloo 39th, by Duke of Oxford 48th. 

 Empress of Waterloo 10th, one of the pretty group of calves in the 

 Park, is also from her, and the Sixth, a year older, own sister, is an 

 exceedingly level heifer. Empress of Waterloo, with quite the 

 Givendale colour, by Mr. K. Pavin Davies's Oxford's Prince, was the 

 first calf of Lady Waterloo 29th, after coming from Wallington, and 

 thus half-sister to Lady Waterloo 37th ; previous to the dispersion 

 of Sir Walter Trevelyan's herd, both Capheaton and Wallington, had 

 continued the numbers from the Gaddesby herd, but now with the 

 new year of 1880 a change was resorted to, and Empress of Waterloo 

 was born in January. The Fourth, a rather light red, full of style, 

 is by Winsome Duke, and has a double cross of the Cambridge Rose 

 blood on the fine old Lady Waterloo 23rd, and the Eighth, a light 

 roan, by Duke of Waterloo 7th, a very level well ribbed heifer, is the 

 last daughter of the old cow. From the Lady Waterloo branch we 

 turn to Waterloo 32nd, bought at Wallington with Waterloo Maid,- 

 and Waterloo Maid 2nd, but the five females are from the two 

 former, mother and daughter. Waterloo 32nd, a good cow in
