This is a-s far as lam able to go, tho r I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended Lomas good a stock as any horse in the Unified States.— He was a race horse of the first order, but 1 loar 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 Hah xxy Cryf.r, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full pedigree of the darn 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 laised in Tennessee.— She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of imported Citizen ; her dam Hosey Carey by Sir Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Chorlemaine, (son of O’Kelley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest | importations of the last century;) great grand-darn by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-groat 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-great-great-great-great-grand-dam by Leo’s old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou koy.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary to trace beyond Sir Archie.
