Not sayin' you're wrong, Russ T, but I'm showing Old Whitey belonging to Zachary Taylor.  Do you have something showing Hayes? ???

I just recall seeing something about a marker for "Old Whitey   President Rutherford B. Hayes' Horse"  on the site of Hayes tomb.

Can't judge a horse by it's color ???  Ever seen this one?

One white leg, buy him.
Two white legs, try him.
Three white legs, send him far away.  (Sell him to your foes)
Four white legs, keep him not a day.   (Feed him to the crows, he's sure to cause you woes)


and

It is lucky if only the near hind leg is white, unlucky if the off hind leg is white.
It is lucky if the forelegs, or hinds legs, have equal white stockings - unlucky if the foreleg and hind leg on one side are white - very unlucky if the diagonal legs are white.
