"Pat" who was a 3/4 horse-mule, was the sire to the foal in this image.
"The mare mule, "Beck", was obtained by A. and M. College in 1921, with an infertile, mule-like female yearling, "Kit", which she had foaled in the service of a jack. In 1922, at about the age of 22, "Beck" was bred to a stallion and foaled the horse-like colt, "Pat" ….a bright bay, with white stockings and star. ..average size, strong, healthy and amorous, having the head, breast, hips, flanks and feet of a horse. His left ear droops slightly ...appears to have proverbial shrewdness of the mule. " -Veterinary Bulletin, Lederle. V.11 no.1. 1942. pg.9-12.
