on the buggy and chaise horses presented. It was impossible to 

 get them together. We Avould therefore recommend that thev be 

 disposed of the first day in future, as it is well known that the 

 public desire to see the roadsters on the second day. 



CLASS D — TEAM HORSES. 



For the best team horse, to James McLane, of Dedham, for his 

 sorrel mare, four years old, first premium, $7. 



For the second best team horse, to Amory Fisher, of Dedham, 

 for his gray horse, five years old, $5. 



To C. A. Bigelow, of Dover, for his fine gray horse, diploma. 



The Committee would call the attention of the people in Norfolk 

 County to that class of horses known as " saddle horses," and 

 would express the hope that another year a greater number will 

 be presented. For in no place does a good horse look so well, 

 and show himself to so good an advantage, as under the saddle of 

 a skillful rider. It is an easy, " every day gait," with which we 

 wish to see them move on the track, such as would be safe for a 

 lady to ride, unaccompanied by a gentleman. 



We would say to those who entered their horses under the class 

 of roadster and family horses, that the time allowed them was not 

 sufficient for the Committee to do them justice, on account of the 

 rain coming on as it did. We, therefore, desire those interested 

 to pardon whatever seemed amiss, and assure them that our good 

 will was with them. 



For the Committee, 



WILLIAM R. MANN, Chairman.
