tonian began his stud career when but two
years old. One of his first fOalS if not his
very first, was AleXander's Abda11ah. The
latter died when but thirteen years old, yet a
careful study of the 2 80 list will show that
greater number of the animals found there

other stallion that ever lived excepting his
own ancestors

tinction upon the turf was the famous Dexter
(2.17A), which was for several years king of
the trotting turf. DeXter's dam, is we'll
known, was Clara, Highland, nervy, reso-
lutte daughter of Seely's American Star. The
last foal produced by Hambletonian is DIR. J.

Seely's American Star have already produced
thirty-three stations which have got 2.3O

many years Hambletonian'S Last will be
numbered in that class.
Remember Henry S. carries the blood of
A1exander's Abda1lah and of American Star.
