This horse was oviginally called Charlemont, and is to be found 

 as such in the Stud Book, vol. i., 327. He was then called Big 

 Ben, and lastly, Traveller. 



I at first utterly discredited this horse ; and his owners, for their 

 stupidity in changing his name, deserve that he should have been 

 discredited, except that it is hard to deteriorate the blood of a racer 

 in consequence of an owner's idiocy. H. W. H. 



Trincdlo — Said to be by old Trinculo, Justice, Highflyer, Stargazer, &c. 

 Not in Weatherby's Stud Book. Probably no such horse.

 True Blue — Foaled 1797. Imported into North Carolina. By Walnut, 

 dam King Fergus, grand dam Caelia by Herod, out of Proserpine, 

 own sister to Eclipse. 



Truffle — Bred by the Duke de Guiche. By Truffle, out of Helen by 

 Whiskey, her dam Brown Justice by Justice, Old Truffle by 

 Sorcerer, out of Hornby Lass by Buzzard. Imported into Vir- 

 ginia, 1830. 



Trustee — Foaled 1829. By Catton, out of Emma by Whisker. Imported 

 into Virginia, 1835, by Mr. Corbin. He has greatly distinguished 

 himself as a stock -getter, and the sire of racers of the highest form. 

 He is sire of the famous mare Fashion, out of Bonnets of Blue, 

 unquestionably the best mare that has ever run in America, and 

 of the half-bred horse Trustee, out of Fanny Pullen, who trotted 

 twenty miles in the hour. H. W. H. 



Tryal — It is questionable whether this horse was got here after the 

 importation of his parents, or imported. He was by Moreton's 

 Traveller, out of imported mare Blazella by Blaze, grand dam 

 Jenny Cameron, imported; by Cuddy, son of Fox, g. g. d. Miss 

 Belvoir by Gray Grantham. 



But here is difficulty again all round. There is no Blazella by 

 Blaze, in the Stud Book, nor any Jenny Cameron; nor had Miss 

 Belvoir any foal by Cuddy. There is much doubt about this horse, 

 although he and Traveller were, doubtless, both thoroughbred, and 

 in a high form. 



Tup — Foaled in 1796. By Javelin, out of Flavia by Plunder, Miss 

 Euston, Snap, Blank, Cartouch, Highflyer's g. g. d. 



Valentine — Foaled 1828. By Magistrate, out of Miss Forester by 

 old Dibmed, Sweet William, Thetis by Chemist, Curiosity by Snap, 

 Regulus, Bartlett's Childers, &c.
