PEDIGREli.
edfeys sire Sir Hal, the best son O the i'm
ported horse Sir Harry, by Sir Peter Tcazle; Halls
dam by the imported horse Saltram by Eclipse; his
grand dam by the imported horse Medley by Jim
the imported Aristotle.
.Medieys dam old Reality. by Sir Archv. and
ms avorite daughter; she was the best racer in her
day and is now | think the best breeder: his grand
Dam was Marmaduke, Jolulsons old Medley mare !
who was more productive to her owner as brood
mare, and produced more runu-.s and more winner
than any other mare in America, was by the old inn
ported horse Medley his great grand dam by the i'm
ported Centlnel, oJt of Polly Williams the creates,
racer IN her time; sire by the old imported Janus and
Ier great grand dam by the importcdhorse SPEAKER
1t VIII thus be seen from his Pedi ree that he has
more Meiley blood, than any stallion now known
winch IN my opinion is the best blood.
