"The wide-awake horsemen received
him with open arms. He was what
they term an angel-one with plenty of
money to eXpend on horseflesh A few
OF his horses turned out well and made a
noise at the time. One great and re-
spetced horseman, who will never gam
bic penny on horse, paid Mr.. Penis
tan $4,000 for a splendid stallion. He
bought Fellowcraft after his great
achievements at Saratoga. In the main,
however, Mr.. Penistan's venturers turn
ed out poorly. The tickle jade seldom
smiled; she seemed to have forgotten
her old favorite. Mr.. Penistan, how
ever, was hail fellow well met with
lovers of the horse. He kept extensive
breeding farms, poured out money
lavishly, while the best vintagcs
moistened the lips of his many
guests. A man fond of and willing to
pay well for horses trots quickly into the
affections of the aristocratic old breed
ers, especially in Kentucky. Here Mr.
Penistan expended 100000 on q stock
farm. He had a theory that by blending
the best racing with trotting stock, the
fastest trotters in the world could be
produced. Glowing statements were at
times sent to him of promising colts that
were to be the coming horses, but when
the time came TO try them they were
found wanting. Indeed, it is said that
he often paid extravagant sums for colts
he had never seen. At sale of his trot
ting stock in Fayette county, Kentucky,
early last fall, seventeen head including
stations, mares and geldings, which had
cost round sums, the highest price real
lied was $500, and the lowest 1856, for a
single horse. The others averaged about
5000. Then came tumbles in real estate,
and the man who had become rich with
wave of fortunes wand found himself
overwhelmed by waves from sea of
troubles. He sold out, after an expert
ment of less three years in Kentucky,
and animals that cost him heavily were
sold for song. His farm brought far
less than the cost price. 1t only shows
how soon a fortune of half million can
be got away with by fast horses and a
bad run of luck.
81 am told" said the sportsman in con-
clusiOn, "that Mr.. Penistan remarked to
an old friend recently: Major, it would
have been much better for me if l had
invested in $50 bonds instead of 2 20
flyers But then you see he was not the
man to reverse the adage, easy come,
easy co."
