330 OTHER HAMBLETONIANS. 



Ell wood Medium has a three-year-old record of 2:41^. 



Helen Medium has a four-year-old record of 2:40. 



Ethel Medium, owned at Altoona, Pa., has already shown this season 

 a half mile in 1:17|-. 



Maud Medium, last season, trotted a half mile at Point Breeze, ta 

 wagon, in 1:19. 



May Medium has this season, with two weeks' handling, shown a 

 mile in 2:38. 



Princess Medium trotted a mile this spring, the second one she was 

 given, in 2:40. 



Leon Medium has shown very fast time, and is valued highly, 



I am obliged to say of this stallion, and generally of his descendants, 

 that I do not like their feet. They do not have foot enough; that is, it 

 is deficient in size and depth, but it must be admitted by all that they 

 know how to handle them. The feet of Princess were quite faulty, 

 and she was often lame. 



One thing is clearly apparent in this horse and in all of his family,, 

 and the same is seen in Cuyler: — the Messenger blood which gives 

 them their character as trotters was the pure, unmixed trotting blood 

 of that great sire. It has no galloping tendencies. If Happy Medi- 

 um could go as fast as a cannon ball he would want to go at a trot, and 

 when he trots he goes as though he really had about that degree of 

 speed in view. He has the perfect temper and spirit of a trotting 

 sire. He has not the appearance of being as large as he really meas- 

 ures. He appears to be smaller than Cuyler. He is short in his 

 leverage; has a thigh 22 inches, and is only 39 inches from hip to 

 hock; but ho is put up close and strong, and no fault can be found 

 with any part of his form or frame work. His produce strongly 

 resemble him in all his essential points. The one noticeable fact 

 about them is, that they all trot — mostly inside of 2:45, and many- 

 inside of 2:35, while some have a record in 2:30, but thus far none in 

 2:25. If they are to be called the Medium family, then those iu 

 advance of them must get off quick, and keep it up at a speedy rato»
