1t appears that upwards of sxty-five
per cent. of the entire 2:17 list trace in
the paternal line to Rysdyk's Hambleto-
Man, while Trinket (2:l4) in the Mann
brine Chief and STEAMBOAT in the Clay
family are inbred to him. Patron, in the
Mambrino Chief family, is also from a
granddaughter of the old Hero of Ches-
ter. Nine of the lot, or upwards of
eighteen per cent, are descendants of
George Wilkes. Eight of the number
: trace in the paternal line to Alexander
Abdallah. His cross is also found in
Trinket (2'14, Jerome Turner (2:l54)
and Jerome Eddy (2:l64). Volunteer
and his sons are entitled to the credit of
producing four of the number, while Die
tator is represented by three and Elec-
tioneer by two. King Wilkes, foaled in
1876, sire of Oliver X. (2:l64, is the
youngest sire which has produced 2: IL
trotter, and Conn's Harry Wilkes, sire of
Rosalind Wilkes (2:l4t) is only year
older. Neither King Wilkes nor Harry
Wilkes have produced any others with
fast records. George Wilkes and Alex
ander's Abdallah, together with their
progeny, have contributed a greater num-
Der to the list than all the other sons of
Rysdyk's Hambletonian. Upwards of
one-third of the entire list trace directly
to these two remarkable sires.
