430 APPENDIX. 



white stocking behind ; bred in "Vermont, sired by Ethan Allen, 

 her dam a Morgan, mare, pedigree untraced. One of the freest 

 drivers and greatest road mares I ever owned. I let Hon. 

 John E. Bussell of Leicester, Mass., have her one season as a 

 driving mare and to breed to his stallion, Privateer. 



Fearless. Sorrel mare, no white markings; a well-bred 

 daughter of Fearnaught, by Young Morrel, dam untraced. 

 One of the best free driving mares I ever used, but too high- 

 strung and rattle-headed for anything but a driver. 



Hunkadora was a dark chestnut trotting mare, bred in "Ver- 

 mont, and sired by Osceola, son of Black Hawk. She was 

 something of a puller — very much so when I first bought her

 as a stock horse. She also produced Minnie Bussell, by Priva- 

 teer, Minnie Dimon, and others. 



Alma Dimon. A beautiful Morgan mare, brown, with 

 stripe and one white foot, colored and marked exactly like 

 Smuggler, 2.15J. I drove this mare in Boston and vicinity in 

 1883, and took her West in 1884. She was the clam of Midair, 

 by Midway, son of Almont. 



Kittie Walker. A dark chestnut mare of the Boyal 

 George stock of Canada, with a strong thoroughbred cross. 

 She was one of my driving mares during the time I had charge 

 of the Essex Stock Farm in Essex County, Ontario, Canada. I 

 consider her among the greatest driving horses I ever drew 

 rein over. I have driven her through the streets of Detroit 

 at a 2.30 gait in a buggy, and have very narrowly escaped 

 being fined for fast driving, and, perhaps, would have been
