PEDIGREE--Given by Lord

I do hereby certify, that the BAY

perry Of the Prince of Wales, was
bred byme. He was got BY Sir Pc
ter Teasle, out of Cape.la, and was six
years oldlast Nav, and no more.

Capelia was bred by gen. Parker,

was got by Herod see pa. POI ; ard
so on he may be traced through no.
ole line of ancestors for ages past.
without a single flaw in his genealo-

This extraordinary horse ran with
great credit at 9 years old at he
proved successful, and so continued

rest assured that all possible care and
attention shall be paid to the mares
left with the horse, both to have them
got with foal, and TO preventaccidents
or escapes---but no responsibility tor
any that may happen.
KNOWSLEY was purchased by
US in March last, from Mr. Lightfoot,
at SIS ,OOo.---He covered 1865 mares
out OF which number, as far as we
have been able to learn, very few have
not proved with foal.
KNOWSLEY's ssirc, the famous
Sir Peter Teazle, now covers in En-
gland by subscription, limited num-
Der of mares, at IS guineas each; no
other horse at more than IL guineas.
In 1904, he had "a winning colts
on the turf, when no other horse had
more than 16---and out of 23 kings
plates run for, were won by his
colts---see r. c. for 1ao4---the last
arrived. From the present appear
ance of Knowsley's colts, and the sue
cessful performance of his stock on the
turf in England, very little doubt can
be entertained but that his colts will
prove also successful on the turf in
this country. The annexed certih-
Gates from such respectable cllarac-
tiers, will place Knowsley, as a foal
getter, on as nigh ground as any other
horse in the state.
