ANSWERS: Ives. 2-Colts of YOUR
mare referred to not eligible; they would
be if by Morgan horse. 3-Tbere is I'M
doubtedly Morgan blood in the Claws,
through Lady Surrey, dam of Henry Clay
There is probably the same amount of
Morgan blood in Henry Clay as there
is in imported w-one-eighth-
but this if proved would not make the
Clays eligible to record in the Morgan
Register as they do not trace in direct
male line to Justin Morgan. BLANKS
are good. Seth Warner was bred by
Don c. a. Richardson, Middlesex, VT,
got by Green Mountain Morgan, son of
Clifford Morgan: dam bred by Joseph
Savage, Stowe, VT, got by Morgan
Tally Ho, son of Woodbury. Morgan

tin Morgan. G-There was Long
Island Jackson got by Morgan Jackson,
son of Black Hawk by Sherman Morgan /:
dam said to be by Grand Seignor, son of
imp. Grand Seignor; I'd dam said to be
by Andrew Jackson, son of Young

Bucks Co., Penn, who sold in March,
1893, to Isaiah Wichenor, V. S., Carson
vile, Penn, and he in 1865 to A. Ii. Will
son, Salem, o. He died in Indiana about
