10 “q¢uR,” “STAR,” AND “ MAZEPPA.” 
On the 3d of April, 1868, we commenced training a 
wild and nervous Black Hawk horse for Messrs, Wit- 
uiams & Wiper, who were at that time receiving in- 
structions from us, preparatory to giving instructions 
themselves. In about six days we delivered them the 
horse, and on the following week they gave a success- 
ful exhibition at. Whittingham, Vt. They continued to 
give successful performances for some months, when 
through entire carelessness on the part of the driver, 
the horse was severely injured by the breaking of a 
vehicle, and has not since been exhibited. We are in- 
formed that each of these two gentlemen has a horse

stallion at Providence, R. L, broke him perfectly to 
drive, and in the February after, at Lowell, Mass., sold 
him to a gentleman named Gammon, who has since ex- 
hibited him in the British Provinces, giving legsons in 
training which he had learned from us. *

Star to E. C. Duptey, of Newton Upper Falls, Mass, 
for $5000 with instructions. Mr. Dupiey eravelads 
with the team, giving exhibitions, until January 1865, 
when after having been quite successful, (Mr. Rocx- 
WELL remaining with the team and driving them dur- 
ing this time,) we purchased them back. After re- 
purchasing them, we gave a famous exhibition, by a 
permit of the city authorities, granted upon petition of 
many prominent citizens, at Fairmount Park, Philadel- 
phia; afterward at the Dubois Track, New-York City, 
before an audience of the prominent horse fanciers of 
that city. At this exhibition we introduced our three- 
year-old stallion Hamlet, which we had previously
