age of Is years for $4,000 and is universally
sidered the best breeder IN America, imported
Mammoth, his grand sire, was always acknowl-
edged by good judges 10 be the best Jack ever i'm
ported into the United States. Rail Roads dam
was sold by me last year for the sum of 81 100
and has foal now by her side for which the sum
of 81 900 has been refused. l further state that
consider Rail Road, taking size, form, symmetry
of figure, and giaoe Of motion, to be one of the
! finest Jacks OF the age Ills sire, and grand sire
and all OF his ancestry were OF dark color am
| of great size. believe Rail Roads Pedigree &c
be equal to any Jack in America.
