ONSTEERS. 57 



ON STEERS. 



The Committee on Steers would respectfully Report : 



That seven pair were entered for premium ; six pair were 

 considered, by the Committee, worthy of premiums. One pair, 

 offered by William H. Story, of Essex, although a very prom- 

 ising pair of three years old steers, did not, in the opinion of 

 the Committee, come within their province, there being no per- 

 son present at the pens to give any account of the steers, and 

 the steers themselves having the marks of drove cattle upon 

 them. 



The Committee, unanimously, recommend the following pre- 

 miums, viz : 



To David S. Caldwell, of Newbury, for his three years old 

 steers, first premium, 7 00 



George Hodgedon, of Ipswich, three years old steers, 

 second premium, 5 00 



William Williams, of Rowley, two years old steers, 

 first premium, 6 00 



Jedediah H. Barker, of Andover, two years old steers, 

 second premium, 4 00 



Jedediah H. Barker, of Andover, one year old steer, 

 first premium, 4 00 



Ammi Smith, of Ipswich, one year old steer, second 

 premium, 2 00 



Respectfully submitted, 



R. A. MERRIAM, 

 ROBERT KIMBALL, 

 JOHN WHITREDGE, 

 WILLIAM FOSTER.
