146 THE HORSE. 



Warrenton, after the season, permitted him to go too freely, and 

 he died in consequence. Afterward Ranger, dark ch., and of 

 good substance, was brought from the same district of country, 

 by Sam. Williams, I think, of Warren. Here I sliall name only 

 old Copper-bottom ; he was a ch. ro., brought hither, old, from 

 Kentucky, stood three seasons, and died about 18-16. His sire 

 or grand-sire is said to have been a Canadian, and his dam well- 

 bred. They, his colts, commanded high prices for the saddle. 



Pedigrees in the South, prior to the issuing of the Turf 

 Kegister, depended on manuscripts or memory, and thence fol- 

 lowed transpositions and sometimes errors. Timoleon, one of 

 Sir Archy's best, was a horse of great size, correct proportions 

 and finish, good even to the hoofs, without apparent adulter- 

 ation — dam by Saltram, imp. ; Wildair, Symmes' ; Fallow, imp, ; 

 Driver ; Yampire, imp. There are many Drivers, and we are 

 not informed which ; and as to Fallow, he has been said to have 

 been a cart-horse, imported* to South Carolina. According to 

 Lawrence, no three parts bred, was ever known to go the dis- 

 tance •, and, as I believe with him, that full-blood, at least, is 

 necessary to enable a horse to go the distance in competition 

 with those purely bred, therefore, I have supposed Fallow to be 

 a misprint, for Fellow, by Cade, foaled in 1757, and said to have 

 been imported ; Yampire, foaled the same year. Of Stockhold- 

 er's pedigree, we have had several versions ; the last edition 

 says — got by Sir Archy, dam by Citizen, imp. ; Stirling, imp. ; 

 Mousetrap — said to be English Jack Rap, imp. ; Eclipse ; Fear- 

 nought, imp. ; Apollo ; Jcinus, imp. ; Partner — Moore's — imp. , 

 Silver Eye, imp. ; Jolly Roger, imp., out of Mary Gray, imp. 

 It may be true to Fearnought, and it is probable tliat Partner, 

 was not Moore's, but the son of Traveller out of Selima, or 

 Janus, or Silver E^-e, or possibly two of those may stand before 

 Jolly Roger in the pedigree, and close with Mary Gray. She 

 is said to have been foaled 17-42-4 by Roundhead out of Ring- 

 bone, and to have brought several fillies to Jolly Roger. 

 Moore's Partner was probably bred between 1825 and 1830. 

 Grizewood's in 1831. As to Silver Eye, I can neither find him 

 in Weatherby nor Pick. I think, in the American Turf Regis- 

 ter, he is said to be by the Cullen Arabian.
