97. The Clay family is generally considered to start 
with Henry Clay, but it really traces back through the 
male line to Grand Bashaw, imported in 1820 from Tripoli. 
The latter was fourteen and one-fourth hands high, but 
was reputed to be a horse of beauty and some speed for 
those early days. Grand Bashaw was bred to Pearl by 
First Consul out of Fancy by Messenger, and from this 
union resulted Young Bashaw, the sire of Andrew Jack- 
son. Andrew Jackson was a trotter of note in his day, 
especially as a two-miler. The Long Island Black Hawk 
line has given us Bashaw 50, and Wapsie. Bashaw 50 is 
the sire of the dam of Joe Young, 2:18. Henry Clay 
sired Cassius M. Clay 18, which sired George M. Patchen, 
2: 233, champion trotting stallion in 1859-GO, and sire of 
four trotters. Perhaps the most prolific speed line comes 
through Cassius M. Clay 20, a son of Cassius M. Clay 
18, for Harry Clay, 2:29, with four trotters in the list 
anal sire of the dam of Electioneer, is by C. M. Clay 20,and 
Clay Pilot is also by the latter. This family attains its 
notoriety most largely through the remarkably great brood 
mares that are of this descent, among which may be men- 
tioned Green Mountain Maid (by Harry Clay), dam of 
nine trotters, including Electioneer and Beautiful Bells, 
dam of eleven trotters and eight producing sires.

the Byerly Turk, Curwen’s Bay Barb, the Lowther Barb, 
Bloody Buttocks and the Godolphin Arabian. In his
