whether or not she has been served. If served, the date of service must be given, with the name and Stud Book number of the stalion, certified to by the then recorded owner of the stallion, or his authorized representative. 8. În view of the fact that the value of a pedigree depends largely on the character and standing of the party or parties who bred and reared the animals represented therein, it is a matter of no small importance that the name of the breeder of every animal mentioned in each pedigree be given. This, if known, should never be omitted. Frequently the breeder's name is absolutely necessary for the proper identification of the animal. 9. The breeder of an animal is the recorded owner of the dam (or her use) at the time of service, and dictates the cross. The first owner of a colt is the recorded owner of the dam at the time the colt is dropped. 10. The use of duplicate names should be avoided. 11. Should an animal have been admitted to entry, or transferred through misrepresentation or fraud, the Executive Committee, on discovery of the same, shall declare the entry or transfer void, together with any entries that may have been made of descendants of such animal. 12. When an animal shall have been entered or transferred through misrepresentation or fraud, the Executive Committee may direct the Secretary to refuse for record any subsequent entry or transfer dependent upon the signature of any person implicated in such fraudulent entry or transfer.
