OTHER SONS. 463 



two daug-hters Big Nora and Little Nora, and the respective sons of 

 each, Williams' Mambrino, McDonald's Mamljrino and Clark Chief, 

 the peculiarity holds with great uniformity. I have not seen Doble 

 since he was two years old, and never inspected him in reference to 

 the matter. 



But as the female descendants of Bellfounder have culminated in 

 valvie for breeding jDurposes, in the daughters of Sayer's Harry Clay, 

 so likewise, in my opinion, the creme cle la creme of all the female 

 descendants of Mambrino Chief as dams of great trotters will be 

 found in these female descendants of Mrs. Caudle, and I do not 

 hesitate to give it as my opinion that she was a Bellfounder, strong in 

 Messenger blood. 



BAY CHIEF. 



This son of Mambrino Chief was from a highly bred mare by Keo- 

 kuk, grandara by Stamboul, an Arabian. He had a white face, and 

 hence was often called Bald Chief. He was a very fast horse as a 

 four-year-old, and trotted a half mile in 1:08. He was bred and 

 owned by R. A. Alexander, and was killed by guerillas in the raid on 

 "Woodburn, narrated in Cha^Dter XII. He was sire of Bald Chief, 

 dam by Commodore, owned by George C. Stevens, of Milwaukee.
