284 The Trotting and tbe Pacing Horse 



"5. A mare sired by a registered standard pacing horse, 

 provided her first, second, and third dams are each sired by 

 a registered standard pacing horse. 



" 6. The progeny of a registered standard trotting horse out 

 of a registered standard pacing mare, or of a registered 

 standard pacing horse out of a registered standard trotting 

 mare." 



The National Trotting Horse Breeders' Asso- 

 ciation passed with the issue that called it into 

 existence, and but few of the founders of it are 

 now alive. The Breeders' Trotting Stud Book 

 was also merged into a broader movement, and 

 centralized authority over registration is, I feel 

 sure, for the best interests of all engaged in 

 breeding.
