CHESTER'S COMPLETE TROTTlNG
AND PACING RECORD,

This great work is indispensable to ev-
cry person interested in any degree in
trotting or pacing horses. 1t is not pos
sible without examination to gain clear
idea of the completeness and accuracy of
its information or the extreme simplicity
and hardness of its arrangement. 1t is
complete from the earliest time to the
close of 1885, and gives the summary of
every reported race ever trotted or paced
Except those prior to 1873 in which no
heat was as fast as three minKeS). Ev-
cry winner appears in alphabetical order,
with his best record and breeding, and
summary of every race won; and in the
index of beaten horses the name appears
again with careful reference to every
page on which he appears as a non-win-
ner. Horses of the same name are care
fully Disseminated. A novel and most
valuable feature is the index of sires by
which, at glance, may be ascertained
what measure of success the get of any
horse have had upon the turf. When one
considers that this work covers list of
nearly twenty thousand performers of
about 10000 public races, and that all
particulars are given with almost unva-
rying accuracy, some idea may be gained
of the extent and value of the work.
which forms in itself a complete cyclope-
dia of horse information. The book is
gotten up in most elegant and substan-
tial manner, on excellent paper, with let
ter-press of surprising clearness and
beauty, and is bound in half morocco, sc
as to be an ornament to the library OF
any gentleman. This invaluable work i,
offered at the low price of ten dollars
No other work covers the same ground
and the only one purporting to do so i.
in sixteen volumes and costs about sixty
dollars, is too cumbersome for use anG
does not furnish the information witt
half the completeness and accuracy OF
Mr.. Chester's truly admirable Record.

William Arthur of Ticonderoga, in re-
Spouse to request to state what William
Bevins told him and when it was, wrote
under date Dec -, 1885,
You ask me to tell exactly what was said.
That would be almost an impossibility for me
to do, but | will tell you in substance rs near
rs can recollect what he told me. He said
the mare that brought the dam of Ethan, he,
or some of the Bevinscs q think William BE.
Wins got in Massachusetts where the Bevinses
came from when they came to Hague, and /
think he said she was in the mare at the time.
He could not tell what horse sired her; thinl;
he said the dam of Ethans dam was IA brown
mare and am very positive he said so.
This completes the information re-
ceived in this matter, although there are
several letters from which answers may
yet be received, and, if so. they will be
published. | see no reason to modify the
views given last week as to the effect of
the evidence, except that | do not now
believe that the W. II. Balcom mare ever
got into the hands of Warner Cook. II
seems to me that the only mistake shown
to have been made by IIoyt johnson was
the installing of the mare that Ruff,
Rising raised and sold to George johnson
for the one that Rising got at Rupert;
mistake not remarkable considering the
remoteness of the time and the trivial ma
ture of the transaction. | understand
that other parties wish to give thci
views upon the effect of this evidence
and expect that the matter will be fully
discussed in these columns.

PAGER CAPTAIN WALKER.

Mr.. NJ. d. Featheringill of Pine Grove,
KY. writes as follows to Mr.. II. G..
Brooks of Brimfield. H.: Capt. Walker
was sired by John Hufmans Canadian
horse Tecumseh Ga very fast pacer) lst
dam Kit, by Old Whip; I'd dam Belle
Sumpter, by Old Sumpter; Sd dam by Sir
Archie. Capt. Walker was a brown bay,
with a slight mealy tinge about hanks and
nostrils, with a star in forehead and one
white hind ankle, with very heavy name
and tail-mane at least two feet long.
He was just about Is hands high, but
was heavy built. with more muscular
power than any horse ever saw for one
of his size; had very broad, clean, strong
limbs, that never Swelled or had fever
under any circumstances. His hoOfs
We're rather short and flat, but extra good
and would hold Il shoe any length of
time. His fetlocks were heavy and long.
He was not horse of much style when
standing still, but when in motion his APP
pearance was noble. His eyes were as good
as | ever saw. All of these qualities
Capt. Walker impaired to his colts. You
give , ~ as his record. He could score
it a long way under that time.
| lost sight of him about the commence
ment of the war. | sold him in 1860, he
crossing the Ohio and | the Cumberland
river, so heard nothing of him until 1866.
\ very reliable gentleman was here from
indianapolis, Ind, who stated to me that
he saw Capt. Walker make his last pac-
ing effort at indianapolis, against time,
2 :l6, which he would certainly have
beaten, had not a calf crossing the track
caused his driver to pull him up. When
the calf had passed, the driver sent the
old horse along ut such tremendous
pace that he burst a bloOd-vessel and fell
dead just inside the score, ahead of time
necessary to have won the wager. Pilot
Walker, a colt of Capt. Walkers, made a
record of , ~, trotting, at Cincinnati, o.,
in 1864. have never heard of "A Capt.
Walker mare being bred to trotting
stallion that did not bring a race horse in
a trot." We have never seen anything
in print which approached this letter for
completeness in Il description of Capt.
Walker. And we regard Capt. Walker
mare the equal to Pilot, jr.-Spirit Of
The TarJ.

Hague, n. Y, in 1880. from which town
he thinks they moved in 1910. He writes
under date Dee. /, 1883.
do not know anything about the gray
mare, only have often heard my father tell
about II gray mare ana IA black one that he
owned, and of driving them across Lake
George and how quick they went.
Mr.. +. Atherton of Argo, H., nephew
of Charles AthertOn, who brought the
gray horse from Claremont, y. H., to ii.
writes under date Feb. s. 1856
The horse my uncle brought to IT. he took
back TO ClaremOnt, y. H., about the year 1929.
He brought him from there in the year lS24 or
| ls25 He bought him OF Il man by the name OF
Tulle, and AS he did not meet with the success
he anticipated, took him back and lett him.
The horse was "A fine large one and was con-
| sidered fast horse in those days; could go a
mile in about four minutes on the trot, but had
been badly toundcred before my uncle bought
him. He was French horse-came from Can
ada, and would weigh probably 1850 lbs. He
got a number of fine colts. My father owned
one that could trot in 30; and all the colts
from him that knew were more than com
mon roadsters.

West; and was but a boy only seven or eight
years old when my uncle used the horse
there; but remember the horse well. have
seen my uncle ride him often, and he could 60
like n steamboat.
There appears to be no evidence that
this horse was in any way related to
the dam of Ethan Allen, though it might
have been the sire of the gray colt that
got her.

of Ticonderoga.
CLIFF SEAT, TICoNDERoGA, y. Y.
November 20, lssj.
Mr.. BATTELL,
Dear Sr:-Your letter asking me to answer
some questions is received. | will answer
all can.
LIST. our marriage was Jan. 3, ISL,
End | cannot say certainly that Warner
Cook did or did not own the mare when We
were married. The only certain recollection
that have of her was in the summer OF ISL.
Then know drove her.
| have looked through a good many papers
and books of Warner Cook and of my hus-
band, William II, Cook, before our marriage,
but find nothing relative to the gray mare.
With respect,
Mrs. W. H. Cook.
CLIFF SEAT, TICoSDERoGA, y. Y,
February IL, 1856.
Mr. BATTELL,
Dear Sir:-In reply to your questions | can
say positively that our family went to Warner
Cooks, my husbands father, to take charge
| in the year ls40 october %.
We came back to our present home some
time in May, 1874,
am quite positive that there was no other
white horse on the place, and that was the
mare there is so much talk about,
| cannot say as to the colts that were on the
place when we went there, but | know she
had two very large, likely bay colts while we
were there, and we took them here and used
them for team here till sold. Likewise
think she had II colt by her side in ls44 when
sold TO George Weed, which proved to be a
valuable horse and was sold at what was
thought AT that time great price. You can
refer TO George Weed about that colt. The
mare was certainly sold TO Mr.. Weed before
we came back here.
With respect,
MRS. W. ii. COOK.
CLIFF SEAT, TICoNDERoGA, y. Y,
April 10, lsSG.
| Mr.. BlsS:-In answer to your questions
can say that there was no such horse ON the
farm OF Warner Cook in the years ls4l and
1872. Neither did Warner Cook do any sucf
business in those two years There was nc
other gray horse on the farm, only the one
there has been so much contention about
while we did business there.
With respect,
! MRS. W, ii. COOK.

Grceian Burial Customs.

A correspondent at Athens give an
account Of many curious burial customs
peculiar to Greece which lately came
under his notice. A piece Of linen as
wide as the body and twice as long was
doubled, and hole large enough for
the head cut out OF it. In this the
body was wrapped and then dressed in
new clothes, and more especially new
shoes. Beneath the head was placed a
pillow full Of lemon leaves. In the
mouth was put bunch Of violets, and
around the temples chaplet of flowers.
These are used for the unmarried, and
must be white. Head and feet are tied
with bands made for the purpose, which
are unloosed at the edge of the grave
when the coffin was about to be closed.
A small coin Ia relic Of the fee to the
ferryman) was placed in the palm of
the hand AT Athens sou is dropped
into the coffin. The greatest attention
is given to this point Iu moving the
body the feet always 60 first. A priest
came on three successive days to
sprinkle the room, fumigate it, and
repeat certain prayers, as for that
period after death it was supposed to
be haunted. After burial women are
hired to keep lamp burning ovor the
grave until the body is supposed to be
decomposed. To assist this, the bottom
Of modern Greek coffins is of lattice
work. Every Saturday the poor Of
Athens place on the graves Of their
friends eatables of the sort they used
to like.
