JHst Why.

Some raise the objection that
everything is now sold ~ so small a
margin of profit that they cannot
afford to advertise. This Is just
why they should advertise. Where
is the advantage OF selecting parti-
culariy cheap OF offering especially
great bargains if the people are mol
made aware Of them?- Wilmington

LETTER FROM MR.. HATCH.

MIDDLEBURY, VT, Sept. IS, 1890.
Fl. b. HATCH, Esq,
Dear Sir-Will you please inform me in
regard to a chestnut stallion bred in Ran
dolph, foaled about 1850, that was said
to be by Black Hawk and whose dam
was said to be by Clifford Morgan?
He was afterward owned by Gilbert
butcher, and in 1870 by DR.. Quincy, Ev-
ansville, Wis. Any information will
very much oblige.
Truly yours, JOSEPH BATTELL.
BETHEL, VT, Sept. IS, 1890.
FRIEND BATTELL,
Dear ST. do not remember of any
stallion that was raised in Randolph sired
by Black Hawk, in or about 1850. But
Cornelius Russell (then of Randolph in
1851, | think, owned small black horse
with white stripe in his face that he
bought the west side of the mountain.
and when he went West he took him,
with several others, to Wisconsin.
knew the horse while in Randolph. He
was very handsome. The last knew OF
Russell he lived in Rockford, III.
Yours truly, II. B. HATCH.

he was in charge of the trainer who had
come on with him from Chicago and who
stated to me that the horse had record
of two miles in 800 and a mile record
better than 2 80. | afterwards saw Col.
Bailey driving him on the road, and in
conversation about him Col. b. stated
that he bought the horse in Chicago,
paying $4,000 for him, and that he had
the records as above. In few years the
horse was taken to this town and was
placed in the stud by the Stevens Bros.
of Contoocook. He remained here some
years, sired quite number of colts, but
where he went to do not know. The
horse was dark bay in color, about - Il
high and in weight near $50 lbs.

foaled since 1850, and for each mare whenever
foaled. All mares are eligible that have the

OF which are now being revised tor the press,
will contain about four thousand pedigrees,
carefully compiled from original sources II
sketch of the origin and history of the great
Morgan family, and much other new and orig
inal matter The book will be illustrated with

In July, 1885, we published the follow
ing letter from E. d. Chilson, then and
now of Nergennes, VT, Feb. 10, 1885;
Mr.. JOSEPH BATTELL,
Dear .Sir:-Your letter came to hand
today. Will say that horse was foaled
the property of Ira Abernathy in 1919.
We bought him of said Abernethy in
1852; sold him to G. ID. Austin in 1857.
His sire was the Iamiltonian owned by
Russell Harris of New Haven Mills
known as the Harris horse.
Yours truly,
+. ID. CHILsoN.
In filling out the pedigree blank which
we sent him O. G. Chilson also gives the
sire as the Harris horse. On the other
hand, Ezekiel Hanchett of Bristol, the
man who bred True John by the Harris
horse, Noble Brooks of Middlebury
and George w. Flint of New Haven, all
very well-informed horsemen, Informed
us that the Chilson horse was by the
Hardness horse, son of the Harris horse.
Wallace states IN his Register that the
Harris horse died in 1916. Our informa-
ton, coming from several other sources,
is that he died in December, 1916. The
season of 1916 he stood in Rutland coun-
ty and got Ii colts. From the above it
would appear certain that the Chilson
horse could not have been got by the
Harris horse and was doubtless got as
above stated, by the Hardness horse, son
of the Harris horse. Grey Rose, the
dam of Cuyler, bred by Samuel Roublee,
then of Bristol. Vt, was foaled 1850, or
ISL, and we think almost certainly in
1850. When it was discovered that this
mare could not have been got by the
Harris horse, as hitherto recorded, it
seemed quite probable that she was by
TIE NilllSOl llOINt. It's MI. NllilSOi INV
near by. but it is now certain that at the
time Grey Rose was got Mr. Chilson
did not own his horse and it is almost
certain that the horse was not old enough
to get the mare. 1t is very certain that
he did not get her.
Query-What horse did get Grey Rose
o. D.,.-
friends answer: What horse did Samue
Roublee, then of Bristol, VT, bred his bay
Morgan mare to in 1910? To any party
who can answer this question satisfactor
lily a copy of the REGISTER will be sen

THE STALLION GENERAL GRANT
from Mirror and Farmer

Some twenty-seven or 'twenty-eight
brought from Chicago a stallion called
General Grant. He said he had trOtted
two miles in five minutes, had a record
lower than , 80, and that he paid $4,000
for him. Mr.. Bailey was owner of the
Boston Herald, and was worth over half
a million. The purchase attracted a
good deal of attention at that time. The
stallion got lame afterwards, was brought
to New Hampshire and put in the stud.
His daughters give evidence of being sue
cessful dams of trotters. We have made
a great effort to ascertain his breeding
but unsuccessfully. Hon. Herman w.
Greene, a lawyer who lived in Boston at
that time, knew Mr.. Bailey intimately,
and was his confidential adviser. He
was the only one who could inform us
within a year the date when the stallion
was bought, and we asked him to state
what he knew about the transaction.
The following tells the story:
HoPKINTON, Sept.22, 1890.
Hon. JOHN b. CLARKE, Manchester:
Ny Dear Sir:-1ou ask me for infor-
nation regarding the stallion Gen.
Grant, once owned by the late Col. +. C..
Bailey.
My first knowledge of the horse dates
back to 1862 or SO, when he was pur-
chased by Col. Bailey in Chicago and by
him brought on to Boston. For a time
the horse was in the stable of the hotel
opposite the entrance to what is now
Beacon park. | think it was called the

GROWN POINT, y. !.
JOSEPH BATTEL,
Dear Sir Your letter asking for in
formation in regard to three stations
raised by the late Juba Howe was hand
ed me by the postmaster here. remem-
Der them very well. The oldest was a
black horse; he was sold to some western
man. The next was a chestnut and he
went to Texas. The other was a black
horse and was sold to some man in the
western part of this State. They were
all sired by Black Hawk, and their dam
was also sired by Black Hawk. That
was breeding in some, wasn't it?
Yours truly, S. A. MURDOCH.

BARRETT'S FARO-HAlF INDIAN.

and by whom the latter was bred?
