JOCASSEE is fine blood bay, Of fine form
and muscular power. He was sired by Mai
whithelds celebrated Waverlv, in the spring
OF !s4s-Wnverly by old Bertrand, Of Ken.

Eliza, own sister to the celebrated running
horse Galatip, by imported Bedford. Jocas.

Iomenor, and lie by Sir Archy; his &. g. dam
by Leopard, and he by the celebrated Quick.
silver, horse of great reuown in his day.
From this pedigree it will at once appear
that Jocassee has descended from pure an
eestry. as much so as any horse in the country.
WHverly, the sire of Jocassee, stands unrivalled
at the present day i'll this country, having Oh
tanned premium in 1914 at Greenvic, and
also at Newberry in 1876. also ut PrndIcton
Ind Anderson, being the bes: stallion exhibited
on each occasion.
Jocassee is placed low in price ms to he
within the reach Of every man who is able to
own amare, and in fact very low for n horse OF
his blood, and in form and figure, size beauty
and color all combined can vie with any horse
Every person dcsirous of raising fine stock,
will do well to pKtronise this fulI.blooied and
beautiful stallion.
