Erica 843, by Cup-Bearer 59, was acquired from Lord Southesk by Sir George Macpherson Grant, Bart. of Ballindalloch, M.P., and with her he founded his well-known Erica tribe. (Macdonald & Sinclair – page 110)
From Macdonald & Sinclair: Page 147
In
1861, as a cow, Erica 843 was placed third at the Highland Society; but one of
those before her was disqualified, so that she was actually second. She was
also first at the local show. In that year she was sold to Sir George
Macpherson Grant for 50 guineas, the highest price at the Kinnaird sale.
It
is needless to remark here on the many excellent animals that now trace de-
scent from this valuable cow. Erica 843 herself was not a very large cow, but
was almost bigger than what is called a big little one. She stood on very short
legs, and had a lovely, feminine head, and splendid quality. Lord Southesk
remarked, that after the sale he much regretted he had sold her, but that now
he was glad, as otherwise her race might have been also extinguished.
