Jerseys and Guernseys Exported by Edward
PhIItp Parsons Fowler.

Thirty head Of cattle imported from Jer-
sey and Guernsey were sold by auction ycster-
day In Knapp's stables at 6. 4 and 10 Seventh
avenue. On neither island is there more than
tho single tribe. owing to the protection OF the
States. and also tho charter granted bv Charles
|. OF England prohibiting the importation Of
cattle on those islands. The purity OF blood
has thus been preserved for generations. Tho
cattle were exported by Edward Philip Parsons
Fowler and shipped ut Southampton. England.
on Feb ~ 1879. in the steamship Lepanto direct
for this port Breeders ccrtn 'ntes. certificates
OF importation, and photographs OF the Jerseys
we're handed to the purchasers. This entitled
the cattle to be entered on the American Jersey
Cattle CLUBS Herd Register and tho American
