THIS justly celebrated Horse, imported
into Virginia about three years ago,
will stand the ensuing season at my Planta
tion, near Edgefield court-house, South-
Carolina, and be let to Mares at Forty
Dollars the season ; —but as much trouble,
and many inconveniences a life,'in the col
lection of thtfe kinds of debts, and ,as tl'.e
owner of Dragon is desirous of bringing
business of this nature to afpeedy close, the
season may be discharged by the -punctual
payment of Thirty Delian in every case, at'
any time before the fitft of January next.
The subscriber holds himfelf at liberty to
demand security in such cases as he may
deem expedient, in order to insure punctual
payment.
• Five hundcred acres of land for pasturage,
under one fence, and one hundred acres
under another, both well enclofcd, (the
latter for fiich Mares as have foals) are pro
vided for Mares j* but such must remain at
. the risk of the owners. Mares may be fed
well once each day, for ten cents per day,
and twice, for twenty cents per day,
DRAGON is of a dark chefnut coulour,
sixteen and an halt hands high ; is defeended
from the best running stock in England, and
is a brother in blood, to the famous horfc
Diomcd, whose stock is so highly esteemed
in Virginia.
DRAGON was ur.queftsonably the best
runner of his day. He won and received
forfeit two and twenty times before he en
ded his fifth j car, and in molt cases for
the Highest prizes in England among this
number was the kVhif, (which is known
to be the highest object of competition ever
established by the Jockey Club) of zco
Guineas each subscriber, against two others,
giving them botk a year's weight in riding,
four miles j and the famous match against
Clifdcn, four miles, carrying isftone {225
lbs.) upon each, in which he was rode by
the Duke of Bedford , and Clifden by Sir
John Lade,
DRAGON is a sure foal getter, and all
accounts concur in proving his colts to be
more promising than any in America, In
point of figure, bone, fizc and power, he
is acknowledged to be superior to any horse,
by almost every man who has fecn him. His
pedigree, at length, together with the ex
traordinary performances of his colts as
substantiated by the racing calandei of Eng
land, may befeen at his stand.
His season will commence on the 15th
day of February, and end on the firft day of
September,—One Dollar to the Groom must
be paid in all cases at the liable door.
