RISE IN PRICES . MR . JAMES EDWARDS ' GREAT SUCCESS . PAIR REALISES 230 GUINEAS . Messrs . Edwards , Russell and Baldwin's sale at their Leominster Horse Repository attracted a good entry of magnificent horses , and the exceptionally high prices realised showed that the demand for heavy horses is improving . The most successful exhibitor and vendor was Mr. James Edwards , of Broadward , who en- tered a pair of grand geldings , both over 17 hands . These two animals carried off the first and second prizes respectively for cart horses , and the Silver Cup for the best pair making over 160 guineas . The brown gelding , six years old , which carried off the first prize , was a powerful horse for town work . He had a good back and short legs for his size . He had excellent joints . It was the opinion of those qualified to judge that this horse was the best ever offered at these sales . The second prize gelding was a beautiful bay , with enough class about him to compete in the best of company . The pair made 120 and 110 guineas respectively - total 230 guineas . Bidding in each case started at 105 guineas . The NORTH HEREFORDSHIRE CONSTITUTIONAL ASSOCIATION . ANNUAL MEETING .

AND The The Judge : You abandon your defence ? Proctor Yes as regard Cullis Lodge . His Honour Not as regards Cullis Hill ? Proctor : That is my wife's . I sold it to her . Upon this Mr. Foa stated he did not pro- pose to ask for anything more against Proctor . Mr. Foa opening the case against Ms. Proc- tor stated that he understood Mr. Levick pro- posed with regard to Cullis Lodge to rely solely on the validity of the alleged lease of 7th of August , 1915. As regards Cullis Hill , the de- fence was that she was the owner . in Mr. Levick interposed to say that he con tended that Cullis Hill was not included the particulars of this case . If defendant had to defend her title she would contend that she became owner 13 years ago . His Honour asked Mr. Levick if he objected to his amending the particulars to include Cullis Hill if necessary . Mr. Levick : Yes . Mr. Levick . Yes .
