This is one of those pedigrees alluded to above as especially sus- 

 picious. We here find five generations every one of pure Oriental 

 blood, in the first instance. I hardly believe that such a pedigree 

 exists in the world, though several such, or nearly such, are as- 

 serted for early American importations. H. W. H. 



Jack of Diamonds is said by Edgar, in his Stud Book, to 

 have left good stock in Virginia.
