The Sire of Morgan Bashaw, " Young
Black Bashaw," is an extremely stylish
horse, 16 hands, trotting, to wagon, with
little training, and in ordinary condition
2.4O-raised in Sweedsborc, N. j., BY
Mr.. Vanroom Robbins, and by him sold
to MIR. Elthurster Smith, then of Phila'
delphia. Being the owner of the great
farm called "Artherton Place, in Am.
herst, N. H., Smith sent him to his tenant
there where he sired Morgan Bashaw. 1t
Is said that at FIVE years old. Smith re-
fused an offer for him, by California
Breeding Company, of 100000. The
dam of " Young Black Bashaw" descend
ed from old "Sir Archy," called "The
Godolphin of America" through Mark
Anthony" the best racing blood on this
Continent"
The grand sire, " Black Bashaw,' was
u horse of great beauty, grace and action,
considered by the Woodrufs (no better
iudges) as excelling all other horses in his
ability to get fast trotters and fine road
sters. He was the sire of Bonner's Liam
term" of awful" of Lightning" and
many others as good.
The great grand sire, Young Bashaw,"
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 a host
of other trotters too numerous to mention.
He is usually regarded as the head of the
trotting family of Bashaws.
The original barb, "Grand Bashaw, !"
was imported from Tripoli, by the Secre-
tary Of Consul Jones, into Bucks County,
Pa, in 1920, then four years old, horse
of the most extraordinary beauty, grace,
power, and speed at all PAGES, with re-
markable trotting action, being pure
specimen of the best blood of the desert.
Besides Young Bashaw," he was the re-
puted sire Of trottiny sd lehman, whose
three mile time has never been equalled,
and also of the famous horse Kash-ad-
ne.gcu," and many others known to fame.
The Howard Mare" owned in Hills
borough County, N. H., is brown, weigh
ing, when this colt was weaned, 1922
pounds. She is a mare of great substance,
power, speed and endurance, and held as
almost invaluable by her owner. Her
sire, "Pool's Morgan" was stupendous
black horse, full ISL 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 II common road,
without break to run, forty miles in
hours and 4 minutes.
"Vermont Morgan Champion, " Sher-
man Morgan" and Justin Morgan are
horses too well known, in this State, to
need description or history.
1t will be noticed, that the sire of Nor
gan Bashaw 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,
combination of blood, which
all we'll informed horsemen and breeders
will, at once, perceive is not excelled by
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.

owing first class flyers may be named

Bashaw, jun, owned by Mr.. Fawcett, !
ormer owner of Dexter, has the best !
rotting record of any stallion living or /
ead-2.2l. An offer Of $35, 100000 has
zen refused for him. He was by Green's a
'ashaw" out of Morgan mare, showing j.,
his to be the best Of crosses. Kirkwood,
lred by the same horse, has trotted 2.24
nd was sold last Feb. for sl4 100000.
american Girl, the fastest trotting mare,
t her age, in the world, trotted mile
t Narragansett Park, June Goth, 1869,
4 2.l9, and at Union Course, May 3lst,
$40, made record, pronounced the best
. America, at such season, on a track
n such condition.
1t IS believed, that for speed, beauty,
race, size, bottom, good disposition, and
Intelligence combined, the Bashaws are
xcelled by no breed of horses in the
'orld. As trotters, the turf records show
hem in the very front rank, and as farm
nd family horses they are no less supc-
ior.
Pedigree is so well known by all intel
gent horsemen, to be matter of the
rst Importance, that the temptation to S
listatement of il is too often Welded IN
