Schuyler, Birmingham, Silesian buck 3 years old, 1st premium, Diploma and.. This is a very fine animal, good shape, good heft of carcass, and superior quality of wool. We do not doubt his being a thorough bred sheep, and well worthy the first premium. No. 118. J. P. Gillett, Manchester, Silesian buck,......... Diploma. There was but little choice between No. 106 and No. 118, and Mr. Gillett's sheep having received the first premium in the same class last year, would not be entitled to the first premium this year. We therefore recommend the award of a Diploma. LANSING K. JENNE, BIRDSEYE DEWEY, ALONZO SESSIONS, Committee. CLASS IV.-SOUTHDOWN SHEEP AND THEIR GRADES.
