Black Douglas, by Agronomer, dam Blackbird, bred by Dr Wilmore, of Tasmania. The sire, Agronomer, was bred by Mr Westfield, of South Carlton, near Lincoln, and was bought by Mr Robert Howard, of Rise Farm, Norton, Lincoln, on the 10th October, 1853, and exhibited by him at the Royal Agricultural j 1 Society's Show, held at Lincoln, England, in July, 1854, where he was awarded the Ist prize as the best Yearling .Agricultural Stallion in Class 3rd, No. 228 of the Society's Catalogue. The prize open to all breeds of Cart Horses. The following is taken from the Mark Lane Express and Agricultural Journal, of 24th July, 1854 : — " The most remarkable animal, in our opinion in the yard, or at any rate amongst the Horses, may be seen in the 3rd class ; we need not say that we allude to Mr Robert Howard's Prize Yearling; every one mentions it with a glow of enthusiasm. It stands out alone in the class, and the other competitors suffer by the comparison, although there are some fine colts too. And Lincolnshire bears the belt. Never did we see a yearling so furnished, his points excel those of some four year olds. The Ist Prize could not have been more properly awarded, although the other yearlings are dwarfed by I comparison with this peerless creature." Agronomer was imported by Richard Lewis, Esq., of Rifle Downs, in 1855, and has only been exhibited at one Show Yard in the Colony which was at Hamilton, Victoria, in 1858, where he was awarded the Ist Prize. He is by Sir Abraham Newland, jun. ; grandsire, Abraham Newland, sen., never beaten in the neighborhood. Dam, Mr Westfield's extraordinary mare, by that noted horse, John Bull.
