NANNIE (CORTACHY). 113 



Ballista 22920 went at the Blairmore sale 1898 to Eccles- 

 hall where she bred well. 



At the Eccleshall dispersion in 1903 Ballista passed 

 to Kilquade (Ireland) at 58 guineas her daughters Ballista 

 2nd 29345 to Auchnaguie at 98 guineas, Ballista 3rd 

 31022 to Tubberdaly (Ireland) at 62 guineas, and Ballista 

 4th 34779 as a yearling also to Auchnaguie at 47 guineas, 

 Ballista 5th 36507 as a calf to Maisemore, and a grand- 

 daughter Ballista 6th as a calf to Harviestoun at 38 

 guineas. 



It will be gathered from the above notes that this 

 family, though not one of the earliest foundations or very 

 numerous, has a distinguished record. 



It is not of U.S.A. fashion but its members, when 

 offered for sale, are much in request with home breeders, 



NANNIE (CORTACHY). 



This family comes from Nina 1815 bred in 1865 at 

 Easter Tulloch of which a daughter Nannie 1747 went to 

 Cortachy and there bred Nannie 2nd 3227 represented in 

 the herd through her daughters Naphtha 10843 and

 dant bred there was Neat Nellie 29246 which passed as a
