388 SMUGGLER. 



heavy fore and hind quarters, and was a pacer. Cadmus, the sire, 

 was taken to Canada, in 1842, by Alfio De Grasse, and was kept until 

 his death, in 1852, in the vicinity of Toronto. While in that region 

 he produced a mare that became the dam of Toronto, by St. Law- 

 rence. Toronto was taken to Kentucky, and owned by Col. R. M. 

 Johnson, Jr., and left a produce, small in number, but which will, and 

 do now, hold an important place in the pedigrees of some of the best 

 animals before the breeding and trotting public. This horse had all 

 the Cadmus characteristics. 



Iron's Cadmus, from a mare by Shakespeare — probably a son of 

 Shakespeare by Virginian — produced the celebrated white-faced and 

 white-legged pacing mare Pocahontas, and she, by Ethan Allen, 

 produced Young Pocahontas, the trotting mare owned by Robert 

 Bonner, and greatly distinguished as a mare of speed and trotting 

 quality. 



Old Pocahontas had a record in 2:17^, and could pace a mile in 

 faster time. Iron's Cadmus, from a mare by Davis' Flying Morgan, 

 produced a horse called Flying Cadmus, still living, and lately owned 

 by Mr. Vedder, of Lake county. 111. This was a horse having all of 

 the Cadmus and none of the Morgan characteristics. He was a 

 dark chestnut, with the family blaze in his face, very heavy in the 

 forequarter, and almost immense in the hindquarter, with very 

 powerful hocks and limbs. He both paced and trotted. I now 

 own one of his daughters, the da.m of which was by an in -bred 

 Morgan horse, and notwithstanding the double cross of Morgan 

 blood, she does not show the slightest resemblance to the Morgans^ 

 but is a rich red chestnut, with a light mane and tail, a broad 

 and irregular blaze in the face, and the exact image, in form and car- 

 riage, of Smuggler. No daughter or sister of that horse can appear 

 more exactly like him, and, in matter of gait, all beholders agree that 

 such an unbroken four-year-old is not often to be seen. As before 

 stated. Iron's Cadmus also produced Blanco, the sire of Smuggler. 

 The Tuckahoe family also belonged in Ohio, and seem to have had 

 a thoroughbred ancestry, and some pacing tendencies. The horse 

 Blind Tuckahoe is said to have been by Herod Tuckahoe, and he by 

 old Tuckahoe, owned by Gov. Ridgely, of Maryland. Blind Tuck- 

 ahoe's dam is also said to have been by Diomed, a grandson of imp. 

 Diomed. I give these pedigrees as I have found them, but can not 

 authenticate them. 



When Smuggler was two years old, his breeder, Mr. Morgan, took
