IMPORTED SHORT-HOKim 621 



(bred by Mr. Angus of Styford) by Colonel ( ) by Styford 



(629) by son of Hubback (319). 



Recorded, A. H. B., vol. 2, p. 562. 



NOTE. From the best information in my possession, both of these cows 

 were imported by S. Wait, into New Orleans ; the first in 1839, and sold to 

 E. P. Prentice, of New York ; the latter in February, 1840, and sold to Mr. 

 Ganibel, of New Orleans, who sold her to the Shakers, of Pleasant Hill. Ky. 

 By examining the pedigree, it will be seen that both are alike, till we reach 

 Mulberry by Isaac (1129), except the first was calved May 7, 1836, which is 

 correct (see E. H. B., vol. 5, p. 784), the last Sept. 3, 1836, which cannot be 

 correct and be out of Pomona by Bedford Jr. (1701). By examining the 

 E. H. B.. vol. 2. p. 454, of 1829, we find Mulberry by Rob Roy (556), bred 

 by Rev. Thos. Harrison, calved in 1820, and her first calf dropped in 1822 ; 

 under her, in this volume, are recorded six calves (1822 to 1827, inclusive) 

 three bulls and three heifers none by Isaac (1129); then again she is re- 

 corded in the E. H. B., vol. 3, p. 522. She is here credited with four calves 

 three heifers and a bull none of these by Isaac (1129). She then disap- 

 pears from the Herd Book. We are but to presume, to say the least, that 

 there is a gross error somewhere in the pedigree of this last-named Splendor. 

 With this explanation, I leave her to the consideration of breeders.

NOTE. This cow also was imported into New Orleans, in 1840, by S. Wait, 

 who sold her to Mr. Gambel, and he to the Shakers of Pleasant Hill, Ky. 

 By a little judicious transposition a credible pedigree might be made of it. 

 but I leave it as it is for the study of future pedigree explorers. As so 

 many errors and blunders have been found in the pedigrees of cattle 

 imported by S. Wait, it is deemed necessary to here state that they should 

 be examined with great care.
