PREFACE. 



In issuing this, our second volume of UNFASHIONABLE CROSSES in 

 Short-Horn Pedigrees, we do so believing it will meet the approval 

 and receive the patronage of Short-Horn Breeders generally. We 

 have taken great pains to make it as near correct and complete as 

 possible laying all prejudice aside. 



This volume contains a revised list that should have been included 

 in our first volume. The descendants of Imported Animals that were 

 imported without pedigrees, and those whose sires have no recorded 

 pedigrees are included in the revised list, and to avoid much confusion 

 we have classed them as L R, Lost Record pedigrees, or tracing to the 

 same, with the exception of a few families that are more numerous 

 and better known, and whose descendants have been crossed on many 

 of the fashionable families, are classed separate and given a name or 

 character signifying the family they descend from. 



They are as follows : 



Britannia, (without pedigree) Imported in 1837, by Henry Clay 

 Jr., of Kentucky. 



Beauty, (Vol. 15, A. H. B.) Imported in or about 1834,*by Thos. 



Weddle, of N. Y., got by Favorite (no number), dam by Comus 



(161), by Patriot (486), etc. 



Muttiflom, Imported in 1833, by Walter Dun, of Kentucky ; got 

 by Walter 11118, A. H. B. (recorded under certificate); dam White 

 Face by Roland (563), etc. See remarks to Dun Importation, Volume 

 1. of our work. 



Milk Spring, (Vol. 22, A. H. B.) calved in 1835 ; believed to have 

 been imported the same year ; got by Leander (4199) ; dam Young 

 Blossom by Brigade Major (817); Blossom by Planet (1325), etc. The 

 breeding of Imported Milk Spring is considered objectionable, and is 

 evidently erroneous as her given sire Leander (4199) was not calved 

 until 1838, three years after the date given of her birth.
