aka Lincoln, bred by Fred Ford, Locko Park, Derbyshire, England, to William Harriman (1), Wm. Clark (2), Derbyshire, England
He was by Lincolnshire Lad, 1196, out of Madam by Matchless, 1506. Early in his career he was owned by William Harriman, Wilsthorpe, Derbyshire, and William Clark, Locko, Derbyshire, and afterwards by Mr. Kyte of Derby, of whom Ciaptain Heaton purchased him in 1881. He served at Worsley and Chatteris, in Cambridgeshire, up to 1885, when he passed into the hands of Mr. Walter Johnson of Hatfield, who travelled him in the Doncaster district 1 season at a service fee of 2 pounds, but being poorly patronized he was subsequently let to a society in Montgomeryshire for 4 years, where he left some wonderful stock.
On his return to Hatfield he stood at a fee of 5 guineas until sold to Mr. Fred Crisp about Christmas 1893. At the Southgate stud he had 2 full seasons at an advanced fee of 10 guineas, and died on June 23rd 1895, at the age of 23 years. Most of the best shire stock now in the country have descended from this grand old horse.
