HERSHEt's royal GEORGE. 



This horse was a bay, and was foaled in 1858. He was by old 

 Royal George, his dam was by Flag of Truce, a thoroughbred. He 

 was bred in Canada West, and in 1867 was bought and taken to 

 Iowa by Mr. B. Hershey, of Muscatine. 



POAVELL's royal GEORGE. 



This horse was foaled in 18G3, and was by old Royal George, 

 dam by Kentucky Whip, and was owned by Powell Bros., of Craw- 

 ford county, Pennsylvania. 



MCGREGOR AVARRIOR. 



I have not the facts relating to the pedigree and history of McGre- 

 gor Warrior, other than that he was by old Royal George, and was 

 owned near London, Canada West. He was the sire of 



PANIC. 



The dam of Panic was by Blackwood; second dam by Foxhunter; 

 third dam by imp. Truxton; fourth dam by imp. Prospect; fifth dam 

 by Sir Henry. He is a large bay horse, owned by Hon. Lewis Stew- 

 ard, of Piano, 111., and is the sire of Y^oung Panic, owned at lola, 

 Kansas, by Dr. Fulton, who gives the same pedigree for the dam of 

 Young Panic as given above for Panic. Mr, John H. Dulmadge, of 

 London, Canada West, the breeder of Panic, sends me the statement 

 that the pedigree is correct as to Panic. It is a Canadian pedigree, 

 with which I am not familiar. Blackwood, doubtless, was either the 

 original Coeur-de-Iion or a son of that horse of the same name, for 

 such son was kept at or near London. 



These two Panics are both well known to me. They are large bay 

 horses, full sixteen hands high, and of great substance. The elder 

 Panic has trotted in about 3:40, and I have already described their 

 way of going. 



The family all seem to have the famlty of imparting the trotting 

 gait, much after the same style, and with a uniformity that goes far to 

 repel the idea that they have had their origin in any pacing stock. 

 They now and then show an inclination to pace, but do not breed 

 ■enough natural pacers to warrant the conclusion that the pacing
