  • The Conestoga Horse by JOHN STROHM (1793-1884) and HERBERT H
    The Conestoga Horse By JOHN STROHM (1793-1884) AND HERBERT H. BECK. The Conestoga horse and the Conestoga wagon were evolved in and about that part of southeastern Pennsylvania which, before it was named Lancaster County, was known as Conestoga. The region was named for a river that has its main springhead in Turkey Hill, Caernarvon Township, whencc it crosses the Berks County line for a short distance and then returns into Lan- caster County to cross it, in increasing volume, passing the county seat, to flow between Manor and Conestoga townships into the Susquehanna. The names Conestoga and Lancaster County are inseparably connected in historical records. Unlike the Conestoga wagon, which was known under that name as early as 1750,1 and whose fame still lives in history and in actual form in museums, the Conestoga horse—a thing of flesh—was not preserved and is now nearly forgotten. The undoubted fact that the Conestoga horse was famous in its day and way warrants a compilation of available records of that useful animal. Nor could this subject be more fittingly treated in any other community than in the Conestoga Valley. The writer qualifies himself for his subject by the statement that he has been a horseman most of his life; that he has driven many hundreds of miles in buggy, runabout and sleigh; and ridden many thousands of miles on road and trail, and in the hunting field and the show ring. Between 1929 and 1940 he was riding master at Linden Hall School for Girls at Lititz, where he Instituted and carried on an annual horse show.

    1 The Emergence of Organized Sports, 1607–1860 There is substantial evidence to indicate that games and contests were an integral part of everyday life in colonial America, but it was not until the nineteenth century that the playing of games began to refl ect the structure and organization that we as- sociate with modern American sports. Colonists participated in a myriad of activities that are best described as folk games, meaning that they were characterized by their spontaneity and absence of standardized rules and bureaucratic organization. Many varied games were played in the English colonies, but the most popular spectator event in colonial America was horse racing, much of which occurred in the Tidewa- ter region of Maryland and Virginia. Colonial games and recreations were character- ized by their casual nature, more or less governed by informal rules of local origin and subject to constant revision and argument. Team games were unheard of, and participation in any activity that included physical competition was limited to a small percentage of the colonial population. Although the many games and contests that absorbed the attention of colonial America incorporated many New World variations – including adaptation of Na- tive American games – their roots could be found in rural England. Immigrants to the New World naturally brought with them the customs, values, and vices of the Old World. The Puritan leaders who came to Massachusetts Bay Colony were deter- mined to build a new order – a shining “city on a hill,” as John Winthrop eloquently expressed it in 1630 – that placed emphasis on the creation of a theocratic state in which pious men and women responded to God’s calling to a life of discipline and productivity as farmers, seamen, and craftsmen.
