GILBRETH KNOX 2 : 2 

 Black, 15^ hands, 1050 pounds; foaled 1862; bred by Cyrus Guild, 

 Augusta, Me. ; got by Gen. Knox : dam the Cahill mare, dapple brown, 

 dock tail, about 15^2 hands, 1025 pounds, noted for road qualities, style and 

 great endurance, purchased by Mr. Guild of Mr. Cahill, a railroad contractor, 

 who got her at a sale stable in Boston, and said she was brought to the 

 stable by a dealer, in a drove of horses from the vicinity of Vermont. Hiram 

 Reed, the well-known horseman of Maine, says she was of the " genuine old- 

 fashioned Morgan pattern". Sold, for $200, to J. H.Gilbreth, Fairfield, Me., 

 1864 ; to Mr. Wentworth, Boston, Mass., about 1870, whose property he died 

 at Beacon Park, July, 1874. He was probably the best son of Gen. Knox, 

 and, had he lived as long and had equal opportunities, would doubtless have 

 equaled his sire in getting fast and valuable stock.
