STANDS at my farm in Burke county, and!
will cover Mares at a cow and calf tbe
season ; he is a beautiful dark bay, about i£
hands and a half high, fix years old next May,
f and from his uncommon proportion is allow
ed by the bell judges of superior powers and
equal elegance to any horse ever brought into
this Hate. His fire was the famous Old Sci
pio, who was got by Bay Bolton, imported
by Mr. Lightwood of Sandy Point, on Col.
Sims’s beautiful imported Britannia, his dam
Mr. Embleton’s noted Nelly Anderson, got
by Wildair on a fine Builerock and valiant
Mare. Wildair was imported by Col. De
laney of New-York, and covered.one season
in America j when from his extraordinary
abilities and strain was sent for by tbe Jocky
Club, and returned to Europe. Three Gui
neas or fpecifitß to the amount, will betaken
in lieu of the cow and calf, and excellent pa
rt-rage for mares provided gratis, but will
not be anfwcrable for accidents or efcapcs.
