€80 Report on the Exhibition of Live-Stock at Norwich. 
matrons and youngsters, the winning exhibits of Mr. E. G. C. 
Bomford and Major F. H. Thvvaites being especially good. 
The third-prize winner, the property of Mr. A. W. Jarvis, had 
one of those pedigrees which " no fellah can understand," viz., 
breeder unknown, sire ' Theobald,' dam by ' Seabreeze.' " How 
is it possible to certify the pedigree of an animal whose breeder 
is unknown ? This weakness of giving a pedigree with the 
remark of " breeder unknown " is happily almost confined to 
the classes for hunters. In the Class for Heavy-weights are four 
entries, and in that for Four-year-old Geldings three entries, 
with pedigrees given, yet the breeders are stated to be unknown, 
Amongst the Weight-carrying Hunters were several old 
favourites, whose points are so well known to all who are 
fond of a good horse that it is scarcely necessary for me to 
nttempt to describe the prize-winners, which were Mr. J. V. 
Keevil's fine quality and powerful bay " Norseman," Mr. J. 
Pallister's " Brancepeth," and a black gelding bred in Norfolk 
and shown by Mr. A. C. Fountaine. In the Class for Light- 
weights, three old and and well-tried favourites made good their 
claim to winning honours. Of the nineteen Four-year-old 
Geldings entered, the best was a very neat and stylish brown, 
shown by Mr. F. W. Burdock ; but he was closely followed in 
point of merit by Mr. J. T. Mills's " Red Deer " and Colonel 
Barlow's " Kildare." In the remaining four Classes there were 
only twenty-three entries for the twelve prizes offered, a result 
Avhich does not surprise those who were aware of the fact that 
comparatively few Hunters are bred in the Eastern Counties. 
The three-year-old filly " Princess Beatrice," bred and ex- 
hibited by Mr. F. Blenkin, and the two-year-old filly " Pan- 
theon," the property of Mr. C. C. Hayward, fully deserved the 
high eulogiums passed on them by the Judges. 
Beport of the Judges of Thorouglibreds.
