וושינגטון (משמאל) רכוב על נלסון בעמק פורג'

נלסון או נלסון הזקן, היה סוסו האישי של נשיא ארצות הברית הראשון ג'ורג' וושינגטון ואחד מהסוסים שהיו בבעלותו. הסוס נרכש על ידי וושינגטון ב-1779 ומת ב-1790, בגיל 27 בערך, גיל די מבוגר לסוס בתקופה ההיא.[1]

וושינגטון היה ידוע כרוכב סוסים מיומן ונלסון היה אחד הסוסים האהובים עליו.[1]

היסטוריה

"וושינגטון בקרב טרנטון", רכוב על נלסון

נלסון נולד ב-1763 וניתן לוושינגטון ב-1779 על ידי תומאס נלסון מווירג'יניה, שעל שמו נקרא הסוס.[2] וושינגטון הצהיר כי נלסון היה הסוס המועדף עליו ביותר במהלך מלחמת העצמאות של ארצות הברית, מכיוון שלא נלחץ בקלות מירי.[1]

וושינגטון נראה רוכב על נלסון כאשר קיבל את כניעתו של צ'ארלס קורנווליס במצור על יורקטאון.[3] הסוס השני עליו רכב במהלך מלחמת העצמאות, היה הסוס האפור שלו, בלוסקין.[4]

וושינגטון חדל מלרכוב על נלסון לאחר המלחמה. נלסון ובלוסקין חיו מאז במאונט ורנון.[1]

Its effect is to join two given manifolds together near a chosen point on each. This construction plays a key role in the classification of closed surfaces. More generally, one can also join manifolds together along identical submanifolds; this generalization is often called the fiber sum. There ...
