Crest, a phoenix in flames, proper. Supporters, dexter (right) a horse at liberty, argent, gorged with a collar with a chain thereto affixed, maned and hoofed or, sinister (left) a bull sable, collared and chained as the former. Motto: Sine Fine (meaning without end). Meaning of colors and symbols Gules (red) signifies Military Fortitude and Magnanimity. Argent (silver) signifies Peace and Sincerety. Or (gold) signifies Generosity and Elevation of Mind. Sable (black) signifies Constancy. Proper (proper color of object mentioned). The martlet or swallow is a favorite device in European heraldry, and has assumed a somewhat unreal character from the circumstance that it catches its food on the wing and never appears to light on the ground as other birds do. It is depicted in armory always with wings close and in pro­ file, with no visable legs or feet. The martlet is the appropriate "differ­ ence" or mark of cadency for the fourth son. It is modernly used to signify, as the bird seldom lights on land, so younger brothers have little land to rest on but the wings of their own endeavor, who, like the swallows, become the travellers in their season.
