I J. R. H. AcKLiN,Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows :— ‘ Tom Tunstall was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High land Mary and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare; tne sire of Highland Mary was old Pacoleri Tom Tunstall was sired by old Pacific, and he by old Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended fiom as good a stock as any horse in the United States. — He was a race horse of the first order, but I lear will never be able to make a first rate race again, owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Har dy Cbyer. Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full pedigree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” The same Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus: —“ Highland Ma/y e combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn breds than any mare ever raised in Tennessee.— ,’ She was got by the noted horse Pacolct, the son of a imported Citizen ; her dam Bosey Carey by Sir t Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported [j horse Traveller, called Big Ben or C harlemaine, o (son of O’Kelle' ’s Eclipse, and one 01 the purest n importations of the last century;) great grand-dam by the imported horse Wrangler, great-great-grand dam U’Possum by imported Shark; great-great great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-greal- I, great-great-grand-dam by imported Kearnaught; 4 great-greal-great-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s ■ old Mark Anthony out of a mate by imported Mou - key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary n to trace be% - ond Sir Archie.
