Certificate of Mr.. Knox.
I do hereby certify that the Jack called Grail
Road,'' sold by me to A. Aldridge of Missouri
was raised by me, that he is three years old past
and was sired by Marengo Mammoth, he by i'm
ported Mammoth. His dam Fortune, was by Tip
pecanoe, he by Black Hawk, he by imported War
rior Rail Road is full brother to Telegraph who
was 16 hands high and famous breeder. Rail
Roads sire Marengo Mammoth was sold at the
age of 10 years for $1,000 and is universally con-
sidered the best breeder IN America, imported
Mammoth, his grand sire, was always acllnowl-
edged by good Judges TO 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. further state that
consider Rail Road, taking size, form, symmetry
of figure, and grace of motion, to be one of the
finest Jacks of the age. His sire, and grand sire
and all of his ancestry were OF dark color and
of great size. l believe Rail Roads Pedigree &c
be equal 10 any Jack in America.
