116 WILD WHITE CATTLE OF GREAT BRITAIN. 



Chillingham ox. What a pity it is that so little is 

 known of its origin and history, and that no good 

 pictures of this noble animal have been preserved. Here, 

 where at last we find the wild and the domestic white 

 ox blending into one, we appropriately close the general 

 ancient history of both in England, and, crossing the 

 Borders, follow them into Scotland.
