THE MORGAN HORSE 



To a second letter of inquiry we received this further reply : 



"NASHUA, April 1 7th, 1890. 



" In answer to your inquiries about the bay mare : Mr. Smoth- 

 ers bought her of Mr, Leonard T. Tucker of Royalton, Vermont, April, 

 1862 ; owned her about one year; she went by the name of Monadnoc 

 Maid while he owned her; remember hearing Mr. Clement changed 

 name to Lady Smothers; don't know how long Mr. Clement owned 

 her or to whom he sold her. Don't know of any other sale to Mr. 

 Clement; he lived at Nashua at time of sale; never knew anything of 

 him except to know him when driving by, and do not know what ever 

 became of him or family; am only positive Mr. Smothers told me he 

 sold, or, I think, traded, with Mr. Clement. Respectfully, 



A. S. SMOTHERS". 



We have also received the following letter with description of 

 Lady Smothers : 



" MANCHESTER, MAINE, April i6th, 1890. 



" DEAR SIR: In answer to yours of the 1/j.th will say Carlotta's 

 dam was a very gamy bay mare, about fifteen and a quarter hands 

 high, and I should think would weigh ten hundred and fifty pounds, 

 a perfect Morgan in shape, with the fine head, ears, and gait of that 

 family; good knee action. I should say she was a Morgan, sure. 

 Carlotta has a new one in the 2 130 list. 



Carlotta's dam was the dam of Royal Fearnaught. 



E. L. NORCROSS".
