Certificate of Lewis F. Allen. 
Duke of Marlboro, the Bull whose pedigree is given in the previous part 
is the best Bull I ever bred, during my twenty-three years breeding of Devon 
cattle. He is from a family of deep Milkers, his dam usually giving in the 
best of her season, twenty-four quarts of milk per day, on grass only. Her 
family are of high quality, and that quality uniform throughout. They have 
always taken high prizes whenever exhibited, and one of them took the hun¬ 
dred dollar prize at the United States Cattle Show, at Springfield, Ohio, in 
October, 1854. A bull of the same family, two years old, took the first prize 
of eighty dollars at the same Show, and Duke of Marlboro took the first 
prize as a yearling bull at the Ohio State Show in Cleveland, in 1856, in a close 
and large competition. Rover. (353), took the first prize at the New York 
State Agricultural Show, at Auburn, in 1846. 
I have this day sold the aforesaid bull, “ Duke of Marlboro, 77 to L. A. 
Stewart, Esq., of Buttes des Morts, Wisconsin.
