BREEDING MARES. 



The committee report, 



That of Breeding Mares, with colts by their side, there were sev- 

 en entries, many of which in the opinion of the committee were 

 worthy of premiums, and they regret that no more than two 

 were at their disposal. As it is a rule of the society not to award 

 gratuities in such cases, they recommend that mileage be given on 

 the animals that seemed worthy of it. 



To Wm. R. Page, of Lawrence, first premium of six 

 dollars. To David S. Caldwell, of Byfield, second premium of 

 four dollars. Also to Andrew Dodge, of Wenham, mileage, 

 to Jeremiah Coleman, of Byfield, mileage, and Samuel Jackson, 

 of Bradford, mileage. Wm. Osborn, Chairman. 



DRAFT HORSES. 



The committee have attended to the duties assigned them and 

 report as follows : 



There were ten entries of Horses, only a part of which were 

 on the ground, several of these were admirably trained, and are 

 fine horses, giving proof of great power and draft, but as the 

 Society offer but two premiums, they award to William M. Kim- 

 ball, of Lawrence, the first and second premium of six and four 

 dollars, for his two superior horses. 



The committee regret that the horse of Stephen Moulton, was 

 not entered in season for premium, or he would have been 

 entitled to a premium. 



The three horses of Messrs. Wilson and Allen, weighing 

 1170, 1200, and 1315 lbs., respectively were worthy of notice, 

 and would be entitled to a gratuity if it were in the power of the 

 committee to award it. 



William Osborn, Chairman.
