ing compact and interesting contribu-

kinks in Tennessee pacing pedigrees and
can be depended upon as authoritative
BUFoRD, Tenn, Feb. 10, 1890.
Dear Sir-In reading over your list of
, 30 trotters and PAGERS under their
sires, | notice several errors, also some
places where | can assist you in extend
ing pedigree. Bay Tom. 2:23i, by
Bledso's Hal, dam by Knights Snow
Heels, sire of dam of Hal Pointer. 2 :13.
Bay Tom, 2 :23i. is sire of Fred Neil. b.
G., , :24i. and Bay Tom, Jr., p.), 2 80.
Lee H., 2:25i, and Major p, 2 80. be-
long to a different Bay Tom, whose
breeding will look up for you. Bay
Tom, Jr., 2:30, is sire of Duplex, 2:17i
o., and Johnnie Woods, 2:23t pD.
| am not sure of Johnnie Woods mark.
Blue JAY is not by the Ben Lomond
you give him by, but is by horse here
called Ben Lomond, Jr., by Ben Lo-
mond. who, | think, was owned near
Nashville, Tenn, by Tolbcrt Tanning.
and was probably by Vermont Morgan.
Most any of the horsemen about Nash
vile could probably give you the breed
ing of Ben Lomond.
You have Doctor NJ, = :2lI, by Black
Prince, by the Brooks Horse. dam by
Brown Hal. In the first place. the
horse you call the Brooks Horse has
never been known here. where he was
foaled and where he died, under any
name except Brooks, or sometimes Tom
Brooks. He should be recorded simply
as Brooks. In the second place, there
is no Black Prince by Brooks, and. third
/ ly, Brown Hal has no daughter old
enough to be the dam of Doctor NJ.
have some idea of the identity of this
horse Doctor NJ, and think he is bv
| Black Prince, horse of unknown breed
/ ing.
Little Tomme does not belong to
Blackwood, Jr.. but was formerly known
here as Jake, and is full brother to Min

burg, Temp
Bonesetter, by Brooks, &c.
Rather Bro )ks, :23i, is not by Brooks
but by Earnhart's Brooks, whose breed.
Ing hope to be able to give in definite
form soon. | don't know anything abou,
Queen of the West, 2;2Si, but very much
doubt her being by Brooks.
The dam of Architect, :234, cannot be
by Brown Hal.
Clipper should be recorded as Clipper
Brooks, by Brooks, etc, as there are {
great many Clippers here, Black Hal,
dam is certainly unknown.
