Grand-champion Hereford cow at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, 1904, and at various other leading exhibitions, and noted as a great specimen of the breed. Bred and owned by W. S. Van Natta & Son.

In 1884 Lord Wilton (4740) sold at auction for ^19,000, but the buyer could not cash his bid, so the bull was later sold to William Tudge and Thomas Fenn for ^5000.
