SHOltTHultN HERDS OF ENGLAND. 153 



The Waterloos known as the Duchess of Wellingtons, may be 

 said to be the leading family ; all are descended from the Lady 

 Waterloos, of Givendale, and Gaddesby fame, and at their head is 

 Lady Waterloo 27th, a thirteen year old daughter of Lord 

 Feversham's famous white Oxford bull, and the "Patriot" cow, 

 looking equal to adding to the numerous Duchess of Wellingtons. 

 Her first born, Lady Waterloo 30th, came from the Wallington sale 

 with the dam, and is a deep framed good animal, and Duchess of 

 Wellington 3rd, is curiously the first born of the daughter ; all are 

 together, and form an inteiesting family group, but the best of the 

 tribe is Duchess of Wellington 2nd. from Lady Waterloo 27th, truly 

 she is a very handsome cow, of which any breeder may be proud, 

 with that beautiful frame, so well and admirably formed, at present 

 she is suckling a roan heifer calf by .Field Marshal Wellington llth 

 51254, a son of her half sister, Lady Waterloo 30th. Another good 

 daughter of Lady Waterloo 27th, is Duchess of Wellington 14th, a 

 very pretty heifer, one of the best of the yearlings. The Cambridge 

 Roses, represented by two cows, and their calves, are descended 

 from Heydon Rose 3rd, who after her acquisition had only one calf, 

 Cambridge Rose 7th, by Lord Braybrooke's Duke of Rosedale 3rd 

 33723, thus uniting the Thorndale Rose with the Heydon Rose 

 branch of this popular family. Cambridge Rose 7th, has now grown 

 into a handsome cow, and is full of true shorthorn character, 

 Cambridge Rose 8th, her daughter, by Mr. Foster's Lord Wildrake 

 45175, has like the dam had a roan cow calf, but by Beverley Prince 

 52518, a family that Mr. Botterill has retained in his herd almost from 

 its commencement, having originally acquired them from Weston 

 Hall, the name of Beverley Duchess, originated with Mrs. Dawson, 

 and has been since continued. With the exception of Beverley 

 Duchess 28th, from a Grand Duke of Weston cow, no other of the 

 older females are seen. The Beverley Duchesses, formerly the Miss 

 Beverleys, descend from Red Darlington, bought on the recom- 

 mendation of Mr. Bates, by Mr. Burnett, of Black Hedley. The 

 G wynne Princesses, bred at Upleatham, for many years have been 

 very prolific in Mr. Botterill's possession, and Duke Gwynne 39754,
