Ayrshire

While I was at luncheon four carters came in—long-limbed, muscular Ayrshire Scots, with lean, intelligent faces.

They are now almost double the size, and yield about four times the quantity of milk that the Ayrshire cows formerly yielded.

Even in higher life, a couple of Ayrshire noblemen, and the major part of our knights and squires, are all insolvent.

The grave-digger of Sorn, Ayrshire, was as selfish and as mean a sinner as ever handled mattock or carried mortcloth.
