THE MORGAN REGISTER,

A Register intended to include all stations of
merit that trace in direct male line to Justin
Morgan and having at least one sixtyfourth
OF his blood. All such stations foaled in or
before 1880 are admitted free. fee of one
dollar is charged tor registering each stallion
foaied since $780, and tor each mare whenever
foaled. All mares are eligible that have the
descent and inheritance above prescril ed tor
stations. The first volume, the final sheets
OF which are now being revised tor the press,
will contain about four thousand pedigrees,
carefully compiled from original sources,
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
portraits of Morgan horses, and handsomely
and substantially bound The price is not yet
fixed, but will be as low as can be afforded, so
that the work may be widely distributed
The work has been done throughout on the
plan of first exhausting all practicable means
OF getting and verifying information, discrim
mating rigidly between what is known and
what is unknown, and setting down nothing
as ascertained which is in doubt. Sources OF
information will be given in each pedigree so
that every reader can verify the work for
himself. Full descriptions of the animals reg
istered will be given, and tables showing the
merits of the Morgans, as compared with 9TH
er families, TOR both speed and endurance on
the track, will be appended. Entries will be
received for short time further, and blanks
furnished on application. Address

The association records broken at this
meeting were the half-mile yearling rec
ord of Prince Wyatt, Ala, reduced by
Tamerline to :334; the two-year-old rec
ord of Altemont, 2:54, reduced by Sue
Gillig to :444 and the four-year-old rec
ord of Dynamite, 2 1854, reduced by HUI
da B. to 1924.
\ glance at these tables shows that of
the 81 colt races of this association the
Morgans have won %, the Messengers
six; and of the best records at all ages from
one to five the Morgans hold every one
but the yearling mile record, which is
held by Confession Wilkes, whose dam was
by Ben Franklin and whose grandam
was by Daniel Lambert. What is far
more remarkable is this, Notwithstanding
the legion of sires represented at these
meetings (read the above list of sires for
illustration) the get of a single sire, Ben
Franklin, have won l6 out of the 81 races,
a clear majority over all; a measure of
of success doubtless without a parallel
in the world. Examination of these
tables will suggest the query whether
1t was wise to let Ben Franklin go and
bring in Hambletonians in his stead.
