Killd a Wether which waid alive—
being a middlesized one | 103 lbs. Gross |
When dressd | 60 lbs. nett a 3d. | 0.15.0 |
5½ Tallow 7½ | 3.5 | |
3 Wool 15 | 3.9 | |
Skin | 1.3 | |
£1. 3.5 |
Note—the above at a low estimate, appears to be no more than the worth of a fat Wether—it being imagind, that they woud average the above weight and 3d. pr. lb. is a low price at this Season of the year.
