SHERIDAN'S HORSE In addition to the great men and
women of Perry County, there was,
just fifty years ago, a colt that gam-
boled on the pastures on the farm
now owned by J. E. Saffell, two miles
southwest of New Lexington which
was destined to be famous and to have
his history linked with the Civil War.
This was "Rienzi," General P. H.
Sheridan's famous horse. He was a
pure bred Morgan, coal black, and
weighed perhaps 1,100 pounds, high-
strung, endowed with great powers of
endurance, and full of fight as his
master.
He was raised by Mr. Charles Van-
atta, a noted stock raiser of that
period. His career is well known and
every schoolboy and girl is familiar
with Sheridan's Ride down the Shen-
andoah. Like his master, he appeared
to live a charmed life, and lived to
die of old age.---JOHN D. FORQUER
