426 . APPENDIX. 



of the Black Hawk type, and I believe very well bred, yet I 

 never knew her breeding. She was a very spirited, high-strung 

 animal, but with firm and kind usage an extra good one, and a 

 great roadster. 



Little Bill. A bay horse of the old New England type, 

 a Rhode Island production, kind and safe in all harness. Called 

 Little Bill from the fact that his former owners had a bay 

 horse named Bill at the time of his purchase, and his name 

 being Bill also they did not realize, perhaps, that they could 

 easily change the name of their new purchase to something 

 else, so called the pair Old Bill and Little Bill — the new 

 purchase being the smaller. I finally sold him to "Old Bill" 

 "Watson. 



Dobbin. A dappled-gray horse from Canada, and a very 

 good specimen of the Canadian horses as raised in Canada at 

 that time. He was a good horse and quite sagacious. See 

 Sagacious Horses [Chapter XXXIX]. 



Jim Ceow. A coal-black horse with white stripe in face, a 

 young horse from the province of Quebec, Canada, an extra 

 good driver and worker, and an all-around good piece of horse- 

 flesh. 



Nellie Gray. A flea-bitten gray mare from the north, 

 either Vermont or Canada. Good driver, high-strung, and had 

 been a puller. Her tongue showed marks of a harsh bit, and 

 had evidently been cut half in two. 



Proud Sorrel. A sorrel horse of great style and beauty, 

 making, I think, the most show in harness of any horse I ever 

 sat behind. He was a Morgan horse from Vermont. 



Johnny Morgan. A Morgan horse from New Hampshire. 

 A good all-around horse and at home in all harness. In color 

 a Morgan brown, without any white. 



Carlo. A beautiful brown horse, with an elongated star 

 and stripe and one white hind foot. Bred in Vermont. Had 

 been owned and used by a doctor previous to my purchasing 

 him ; "was very kind and clever in all harness, and a great 

 favorite of my women folks as a driving horse.
