The grand sire, Black Bashaw, > was
horse Of great beauty, grace and action,
considered by the Woodruffs (no better
iudges) as excelling all other horses in his
ability to get fast trottcrs and fine road
sters. He was the sire of Bonner's Liam
terra" of awful" of lightning" and
many others as good.

was also the sire of "Andrew jackson, "
the fastest trotting stallion in the world,
of his day; of the wonderful stallion" Sal
ladin," Of Charlotte Temple" and host
of other trotters too numerous to mention.
He is usually regarded as the head Of the
trotting family of Bashays.
The original barb, "Grand Bashaw,
was imported from Iripoli, by the Secre-
tary Of Consul Jones, into Bucks County,
Pa, in 1920, then four years old, a horse
Of the most extraordinary beauty, grace,
power, and speed at all PAGES, with re-

sire, POOLS Morgan" was stupendous
black horse, full l64 hands, a rapid trot-
ter, with immense power and great bot
tom His sire, p. W. Jones " Black
Morgan" then standing in Amherst, N.
H.. was also large black horse of such
qualities, that it may be stated, on the
most reliable evidence, he trotted to a
common hitch-up over a common road,
without break to run, forty miles in 3
honrs and minutes.
"Vermont Morgan Champion, " Sher-
man Morgan" and "Justn Morgan are
horses too we'll known, in this State, to
need description or history
1t will be noticed, that the sire Of Nor
gan Blshaw IS only three removes from
the original barb, Grand Bashaw, him
self; and that his dam is only five re-
moves from the original Justin Morgan,
presenting combination of blood, which
all we'll informed horsemen and breeders {
will, at once perceive is not exceled by Q
any trotting stallion in the country !
The dams Of many of the horses named .
in the pedigree of Morgan Bashaw-are
descended from such horses as Rockingham,
Messenger, Bonds First Consul, Sir Archy,
True American, Hickory, and Mark An
thony.
