The Committee awarded the premiums as follows : — 

 To Hazen Ayer of South Danvers, first premium, $10 



To Joseph Longfellow of Newbury, second premium, |8 



To Elijah Pope of Danvers, third premium, $6 



To Richard S. Bray of Newbury, fourth premium, |4 



As the premiums are now offered, no distinction being made 

 between large and small cattle, committees differ in that re- 

 spect. Some are for all of the large cattle, others for the small 

 cattle, which sometimes causes some feeling among competitors. 



Your Committee would suggest the propriety of dividing 

 the premiums, so that the large cattle shall have their share, 

 and the small or younger ones theirs. 

 All is respectfully submitted.
