The whole number of animals present was thirteen.

 three years old, $6,00 



3d. To James D. Herrick, Methuen, for his 

 bull, half Ayrshire, half native, $4,00 



There were three tine bull calves presented, but as 

 there was no premium offered, the Committe would re- 

 commend, if consistent wMth the rules of the Society, a 

 gratuity of two dollars to John Dole, of Rowley, for his 

 calf, one hundred and sixty-two days old. 



Also, one dollar to Daniel Adams, Jr., of Newbury,
