As the Committee are required to consider the quality 

 and shape, as well as their working- capacity, we are unani- 

 mous in our opinion, that the first premium of $12 be 

 awarded to J. J. H. Gregory, of Marblehead, for his fine 

 Durham cattle. 



The second premium of $10 to 0. L. Carlton, Middleton, 

 for a pair of fine working and superior backing oxen, well 

 matched in build, but not in color. 



The third premium of $8 to B. H. Farnham, No. An- 

 dover, for a nice pair of Durham cattle, which pulled well, 

 but not up to the standard in backing. But, as they were 

 such a well built pair, the Committee thought they deserved 

 the tliird premium. 



STEERS : THREE ENTRIES. 



The first premium of -f 10 to H. P. Noyes, of Newbury, 

 for a pair of Devon steers, which the Committee decided 

 were the best workers they ever saw yoked together. 



The second premium of 16 to W. W. Perkins, of New- 

 bury, for a pair that worked well, and did all that was re- 

 quired of them. 



J. Arthur Lamson, fur the Committee.
