June IS, 1840.-swim KENT & BLAND/ TOM TUiVSTALL r THIS thorough bred Horse will stand from this time until the first of J u b r next at the stable in the lower part of Augusta, formerly occupied hy Bertrand, Jr. Terms—s3o the season, payable at the last visit; for three or mire marcs, owned by the same person, $23 each: $1 for the groom. PEDIGREE. J. R. H. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows —“ Tom Tun stall was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High land Mary .and her dam a full-blooded Archie marc; tne sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolel. Tom Tunstall was sired by oi l Pacific, and he by old Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended from as good a stock as any horse in the United States.— He was a race horse of the first order, but I fear will never be able to make a first rate race again, owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year old, iu training, as I believe. By addressing Har dy Cryf.k, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full pedigree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” The same Mr. Hardy Cryev certifies thus : —“ Highland Mary combined as many or more rich crosses of thorough breds than any mare ever raised in Tennessee.— She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Sir Arcjiie ; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlcmaine, , (son of O’Kellev’s Eclipse, and one of the purest , importations of the last century;) great grand-dam by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great great-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught; great-gicat-great-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s old Mark Anthony outof a mare by imported Moa key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none i will require a purer or bettor attested pedegree!— If farther recommendation be wanted, call and see Tom WILLIAM HOLMES, Agent, leb 22—trw&wti f FOR SALE—A fine saddle HORSE, i warranted sound.
