worthy OF the mighty George Wilkes, the
greatest sire the world has ever known, having over
seventy 70) with records from 2:13 TO 1880, and in
the stud only nine years. Bay Wilkes never made a
in the stud until the fall of 1855 hence his old
est colts but years old, and all of them show
ing wonderful action and speed. few of his colts,
last season. trotted in from 80 to 245, when less
than three years old. They are nearly all Bays, are
large, rangy fellows; no "outs" about them, they
all sound.
BAY WILKES is regarded as one of the very best
sons of the great George Wilkes. Bay Wilkes is as
good sire as stands in Michigan, and will make one
more season 1S9O at the low price of S25O0. Mares
not proving ia foal in 1890 be returned free in
1891. viii stand I'm Paw Paw. No horse has ever
stood In Michigan that show better lot of colts
than Bay Wilkes can, and as soon as his colts are
old enough and commence to drop into the 80 class,
his service fee will not be less than from 300 to
goo, and this will not be later than 1891.
