"In
the year 1820 the Cattle Show at Windsor was reported to have attracted a very

animals; the day was uncommonly fine, and all persons seemed well pleased.
The following men were appointed judges by the society; Mr. James Jenkins, Mr. John Parker, for Windsor; Mr. John Chambers, Mr. Archibald Smith for Newport, and John Elder for Falmouth.
These judges awarded prizes to John Allison of Newport
for best fat ox; to William Brown of Newport for the best pair of working oxen;
