194 HISTORY OF THE SHORT-HORNS. 



arrival in America he became the joint property of Col. J. M. Sher- 

 wood, of Auburn, N. Y., and Mr. Stevens, and was kept several years, 

 until he died on Col. Sherwood's farm. He did much valuable ser- 

 vice as a sire. 



At the same time with 3d Duke of Cambridge came the bull 

 calf Duke of Exeter, 449 (10152), bred by Mr. John Stephenson, for 

 Mr. J. F. Sheaffe, New Hamburgh, Dutchess county, N. Y., previ- 

 ously mentioned. 



With the above named bulls were brought out from the herd of 

 Mr. Stephenson the yearling heifers Princess 2d, by General Sale 

 (8099) ; Princess 3d, by Napier (6238) ; and Red Rose 2d, by Napier 

 (6238). The latter was sold to Col. Sherwood, and soon afterwards 

 Red Rose 2d gave birth to Red Rose 4th, by Earl of Chatham 

 (10176). Red Rose 2d was a remarkable milker (a small cow, from 

 her early breeding, and thin in flesh from heavy milking), having 

 made 49 pounds of butter in 25 successive days in May and June, 

 1851, when 4 years old, with her second calf. To the above may 

 be added Red Rose 3d, by General Sale. This heifer died without 

 produce. 



With these also came out the bull Lord Vane Tempest, 669^ 

 (10469), sold to Col. Sherwood. 



In the year 1850 were imported the bull Earl of Seaham, 1499 

 (10181), the joint property of Mr. Stevens and Col. Sherwood, after- 

 wards purchased by Rev. John A. Gano, of Bourbon county, Ky., in 

 whose possession he died, leaving some valuable descendants. 



With Earl of Seaham came also the bull Wolviston, 1109, after- 

 wards sold by Mr. Stevens to Mr. Ashton, of Canada West. 



With the above bulls were imported the cow Princess 4th, by 

 Napier (6238); Waterloo 5th (bred by Thomas Bates), by Duke 

 of Northumberland (1940); Wild Eyes 5th (bred by Mr. Bates), by 

 Short Tail (2621). The two last named cows died after their arrival 

 in America, without issue. 



In 1851 Mr. Stevens imported the bull calf Earl Vane, 464, by Earl 

 of Chatham (10176), and the cow Princess ist (5 years old), by Napier 

 (6238); and in 1852 came out the cow Lady Sale 2d, by Earl of 

 Chatham (10176). Sold to Col. Sherwood. 



In the same year Col. Sherwood imported the cow Tuberose 2d, 

 by Earl of Antrim (10174). 



All the above animals of the Stevens-Sherwood importation (ex- 

 cepting the three bred by Mr. Bates) were bred by Mr. Stephenson, 

 Wolviston, Eng., and of his Princess tribe.
