renowned bull Hanton 228, another son of Pat 29. He 

 gained the first prize at the Highland Society's show at 

 Berwick in 1854 as a two-year-old. Mr Bowie's herd was 

 admirably represented at this show, Cupbearer having been 

 first, Earl Spencer 2nd 25 second in the aged class, and 

 Hanton first in the two-year-old class. At the show Mr 

 M'Combie bought Hanton for the large sum of 105, and 

 his subsequent career is fully referred to in our notice of the 

 Tillyfour herd. The Lizzie family also produced a number 

 of bulls known by the name of Logie the Laird. The first

 Jenny family, to the Hon. Matthew Holmes, New Zealand.

 Logie the Laird 3rd 862, purchased by Colonel Ferguson 

 of Pitfour for 100 guineas. After winning numerous 

 honours, among them the first prize in the aged class at the

 904, a daughter of Jenny of Tillyfour, won the second prize

 The Guinea Pig family has furnished several very fine
