J R. 11. Acklis, Esq- of Huntsville, Alabama, ; certifies a« follows ;—“ Tom Tunstall was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High i land Mary and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare; r the sire of Highland Mary was old PacolcL Tom Tunstall was sired by o’d 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 stuck as any horse in the United States. — He was a racehorse 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 Cryf.r, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can “■et a full pedigree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” The same Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus : —“ Highland Mary combined as many or more rich crosses of thorough breds than any maie ever raised in Tennessee^— She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Sir Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported horse Traveller, ca led Big Ben or Charlemaine, (son of O’Kellcv’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’Possurn by imported Shark; great-great l great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great greal-g:eat-grand-dam by imported lea inaught; > great-great-great-great-great-grand dam by Lee’s I old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou , key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary j to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none will require a purer or better attestc l pedegree! i If farther recommendation be wanted, call and see i Tom.
