Albert Mac's dam was Alberta 2:25 by Altoona 8S50 (sire of May B. 2:13%, world's record on ice track, An- tovita 2:16% and Almo Jay 2:19, and five others in 2:30, and the dams of Berta Mac 2:13%, Louisa A. 2:13%, San Luisto 2:14% and Elaine 2:22%), he by the great Almont 33 (sire of thirty-seven in the list, ninety-eight sires of 601, and eighty-four dams of 136), out of Theresa B. by Prophet Jr.; second dam Molly Floyd by Mohawk 604 by Black Hawk 24. The second dam of Albert Mac was Gipsy (dam of Alberta 2:25, Dido, trial 2:28, and the grandam of Berta Mac 2:13%) by Erwin Davis (sire of Ed 2:26, Carrie P. 2:27%, Florence R. 2:26%), son of Sken- andoah 926 (sire of the dams of eight in 2:30) and Lost Diamond by Hambletonian 10. Maggie, the third dam of Albert Mac, was by Goldnote, by Sken- andoah 926, out of a daughter of Goldfinder, son of imported Glencoe. The Skenandoahs were noted for their gameness, speed, splendid limbs and feet and intelligence, and this horse tiaces twice to this fountain head. Being by McKinney 2:11%, out of a mare with a record of 2:25, that was capable of lowering it ten seconds, Albert Mac has a license to be fast. He has only been handled three months, yet he has shown a 2:20 gait, in fact, he is faster for the work he has had than his famous sister. Al- toona, the sire of Alberta, was one of the strongest bred sons Almont ever brought to California. All of his progeny were pure trotters. Alber
