10I3.J THE TUTBURV RACE. i6i 



the colour, marks, age, and valuation of each lot only 

 being recorded. But lots 68 and 72 — the former 

 a three-year-old grey colt, valued at £\2, the latter 

 a three-year-old bay colt, valued at ^15 — were got by 

 Frisell, a son of the Markham Arabian. (Frisell is 

 also mentioned as the stallion of lot 14 — "a bright 

 bay mare, with a streake, 12 yeares old, with a horse 

 foale, ^22.") The other yearlings, two and three-year- 

 old colts and fillies, from lot ']2, to lot 95, are simply 

 described and valued, without any clue of their names 

 or parentage being given. It is unfortunate that these 

 omissions should have occurred, particularly as the 

 sequestrators, by a little trouble and inquiry, could 

 have obtained the necessary information from Mr. 

 Gregory Julian, who, as yeoman of the stud, was 

 still in office, although the Marquis of Hamilton, and 

 many of the officials previously mentioned, had ceased 

 to exercise their several duties at ex-royal haras. 

 It may be, however, that the omissions to which 

 we have referred as occurring in the two contemporary 

 transcripts of this inventory which we have had 

 access to — one in the Record Office, the other in 

 the Victoria Tower, House of Lords — are supplied 

 in another manuscript preserved among the Marquis 

 of Salisbury's manuscripts at Hatfield, which we have 

 not seen. 



Such was the state of Charles I.'s stud at Tutbury 

 when the subjoined inventory was finished, July 27, 

 1649. Prior to this date, however, a bay horse, 

 3 years old, and a black horse, 5 years old, by 

 Newcastle, had been " taken up " by Quarter-Master
