First sentence: Among the great variety of crofses that are made, I have observed a particular sort that is endowed with such an excellent shape and constitution, as enables them to do great execution; and tho' the breeder has deprived them either thro' neglect or want of judgment of that share of blood which is necefsary in all Fighting Fowl, yet, by virtue of those other qualjfications, they will beat highbred cocks, which are wanting in those respects, that is such as are tainted and withal deformed; but suppose them to be tainted only, it is sufficient to render them incapable of any great performance.
