DESCENDANTS OF SHERMAN MORGAN 451 



Sire of dams of Thatcher's Hambletonian and Earle's Magna Charta Jr. 

 Second dam of Jack 2:12, fifty-race trotter. 



ROUNDS HORSE 



Brown, nearly black, 15^ hands, noo pounds; foaled about 1847; 

 bred by Herod Morgan, Clarendon, Vt. : got by Black Hawk : dam a finely- 

 formed, gamy bay mare, 15^ hands, 1000 pounds, well ribbed up and high- 

 headed, bought, 1833, at Middletown, Vt., with 22 other sucking colts, by 

 Daniel Hulett, Pawlet, Vt., and sold on his death, 1836, by his son, to Smith 

 Kelley, then of Clarendon, Vt., who sold to H. Morgan, breeding unknown. 

 Joshua Hulett, a respected citizen of Pawlet, writes that he was applied to 

 by Rounds and Kelley to get pedigree of this dam, that he and others went 

 to Middletown and made all inquiries possible, but could get no trace of her. 

 It has been stated that she was a catch colt by Philip Clark's Messenger, but 

 this is not true ; she was as old as the Clark Horse, or older. Sold to James 

 Rounds, Clarendon, Vt.; to Jack Williams, Middletown, Vt., about 1852, who 

 kept him one season in Mohawk, X. Y., and then took him to Baltimore, Md., 

 kept him there several years and sold him on the eastern shore of Maryland. 

 He was a very nice-looking horse, and could trot in 2 140.
