Sir Bredwell, the Hereford bull
that has been viewed by thousands
at the Slaughter Hereford farm. died
last night of gastritis after an illness
lasting one week. Sir Bredwell was
one of the most famous bulls in the
United States. He ooh the first prize
at the Omaha Exposition in 1898. He
was purchased at that time by George
NJ. Slaughter of this city for $4,000.
The bull had never been placed on
exhibition since that time except at
the fairs in this city.
His registered number was 1858
and his sire was Corrector. DR.. Jen'
kins, the bestknown veterinary sur
geon in New Mexico, was in constant
attendance, but the animal grew con-
stantly worse until the end. A posi-
norton examination was made this
morning, and 1t developed that the
diagnosis of gastritis had been cor
rect.
The head and horns will be sent
to Dallas, Texas, and will be stuffed
and dressed for the Office of Colonel
c. C. Slaughter. The balance of theN
remains will be buried on the Slaugh-
ter farm a marble monument
will be erected to his memory.
There was no life insurance on the
animal. Offers OF 1880 had been re-
fused for him. His weight was 1900
pounds.
Sir Bredwell was born March 4th.
