Ertrdct Of a letter from DR.. Merritt, dated
MAJ 2. 1887.


Inop predict that 10 a few years, FELT will be
one Of the best Stations in America. | am sure,
from the appearance of Felt's colts here and in
England, no horse can boast of a better or more
promising progeny. They will be, in my opinion
very distinguished on the turf and under the saddle
yes, every where. Now you have inSFelt, one OF
our very 6estimportea horses, a better horse, In my
humble opinion, than Luzborough or fylde, and
see how their colts run"
1t will be seen by the annexed terms, that DR..
Merritt's liberality TO this country has permitted
Felt to make a season here much lower priced than
he did in a country where he was justly a favorite,
and had a crowded season. He will stand this sea-
son. (which has commenced and will end the first Of
july, ! at nv stable, two and a half miles east of
Battletown, in Clarke County, Va, at $50 the sea-
son, to be paid on or before the I'd day 0 fJuly next;
and s75 insurance, TO be paid as soon as the mare
is known to be with foal ;-palting with the mare
or irregular attendance at the stand, fotfeits the in
surance-and Fifty cents cash to the groom to be
sent with the mare. This is a fine grass country,
and Pasturage can be furnished at fifty cents per
week, but | will not be accountable for accidents
or escapes. Gentlemen wishing their mares fed on
grain will give written directions to that effect, as
ii will be purchased and furnished At the neighbour
hood prices. By letter or conversation NTH me,
gentlemen can ascertain upon mhat conditions half
bred and coarse mares can be attended TO By Fsb
for $50 the season or $50 Insurance.
