 Chatham) dam Venus by Olympus. Bred by Capt. Williams of 

 Maryland. At Alexander Brown's, Jefferson County; season 20 

 shillings.

 Crab. Imp Bulle Rock, imported in 1730, aged twelve years, 

 was by the Darley Arabian. There were three native bred Bulle 

 Rocks of later periods; one of these may have been meant, though 

 the first was possible.)

 who was imported and come out of the famous Rosetta." Season 

 1792 at James Manasco's and Lazarus Dodson's, Greene County;

 likely the one foaled 1771, by Dragon, out of a mare by Blank.) 



All of the horses hereinafter named as standing in 

 Tennessee prior to 1840 descended from the Darley Ara- 

 bian, or the Godolphin Arabian or the Byerly Turk, or
