| DEAR SIR,
find you likely to take Timoeon to the
Western country. If this should be the case hope
most earnestly you may do well as his real merit
as race horse deserves. have seen him run in
all the races in Virginia, he ever ran. His per-
iormances from one to four miles, have been such
as TO do credit to the best runner, either in this
country or Europe! and his style of going is of the
most superior action.-I1is size and blood cntitle
him TO rank first rate stallion. never saw
but one of his colts-that colt is the celebrated
! Washington-which was foaled at my fathers,
! (hc had not then commenced covcring.) This colt
would have done credit to any horse: indeed, out
of one hundred it would be difficult to select one
his equal; and would soon this day enter it in
a stake oftrom one to five hundred dollars each, as
to select from this season of any covering horse
no matter how many mares he had put to him.
Your obedient servant,
WILLIAM 4, JOHNSON.
