Twelve of his get were shown and
made very creditable exhibition.
The Morgan exhibition was very
large and was characterized by the
style and beauty for which the family
has always been distinguished. 1t was
noticeable, however, that the Morgan
exhibit was confined exclusively to
Black Hawks and those mostly of the
Ethan Allen line. The only exceptions
we noted were Prentice, large black
colt, wears, by Eastern Boy, son of
Gen. Knox, dam by Young Draco,
shown by G.. w. Lynde, Williams
town; Fanchon, an excellent chest
nut mare, years. by Eastern Boy dam
by Daniel Lambert, shown by DR.. o..
II. Stevens, Bradford, VT, and High
land Maid, a very clean-looking chest
nut daughter of Highland Grey, dam
by Darkey. So far as noted these were
the only Morgans exhibited that did
trace in direct male line to Ethan AL
len, 1t is said that next year the Nor
gan exhibit will be of more catholic
nature.
Two Sons of Ethan Allen were
shown, each p years old. One was
Holabrd's Ethan, a stout and we'll
preserved bay horse of great substance,
like the old-fashioned Morgans in
build, but nearly l6 hands high. He
is owned by Mrs. Mary Holabird of
Shelburn, and IS represented by four
of his get already in the 2:30 list with
more to follow. His step is yet lofty
and proud and his eye undimmed. He
seems good for years yet to come. lie
shows excellent stock. Franklin

Ethan, by l1olabird's Ethan, dam by
Grey Norman, fine horse and trot-

gan, can trot in 2:40; a bay mare 7
years, full sister to Clipper; Albert c.,
b. G., full brother, years, record 2:40.
Then there is the bay mare, Gypsy, 9
years, entered in the stakes for 3 min
ute mares, owned by A. l.. Woodbury.,

The other 27-year-od son of Ethan
Allen is the famous Daniel Lambert,
owned by j. Battell and others, Mid
dleburY, Vt. He has trotter in the
2:3O list for each year of his life, with
several others on the verge. His mo-
tons are quick and nervy and he APP
pears as vigorous as a colt Near by
is his bay son Abraham, % years old,
with five in the 2:30 list, and new ones
coming. lie is owned by Messrs. Vail
and Brigham and stands at Fairvale,
near Montpelier. Among his get is

stamina and endurance, whose record
with running mate is 2:0S IL. And
these two beauties at the right are Mo-
ton and Thought, the Bread Loaf stall
lions, and stable companions to the old
king, their sire. If you will wait till
tomorrow you will see Thought lead
little surprise party on the track. And
w lie m cix Lo, 4
fellow whose rich color is the darkest
possible chestnut, whose form is a
sculptor's model, and who bears him
self like an emperor? That, my friend,
is Ben Franklin, one of the fastest stall
lions alive, whose get will tomorrow
do honor to the sire that got them.
Ben is owned by Mr.. ii. Il. Cults, and
kept at his farm, Brookside, in Orwell.
This chestnut at the right is Wards
Lambert, from which Mr.. Chas. II.
Page, his owner, is breeding trotters at
Malvern Farm, Morrisville. Opposite
to him is Tom Lambert, mahogany

high and weighing 100 pounds, owned
by Silas Dickinson, Essex, N. Y. Near
by is Mr.. Hamilton Westcott of Fair
