same sale and by these jacks, also brought good 

 prices. 



Mr. Graham, of Kentucky, about the year 1883 

 or 1884, brought over some Andalusians. We know 

 but little or nothing about them. Some three or four 

 years afterwards the same firm imported a few jacks, 

 some jennets and colts from Catalonia. 



Messrs. Hoy Bros., of Nebraska, imported five jacks 

 from Catalonia in the summer of 1884. They were

Luke M. Emerson, of Bowling Green, Mo., im-

 ported. He shipped his stock with Mr. Emerson, and

 quality of stock. 



Messrs. Kniffin & White, of Danville, 111., also im- 

 ported in 1889. They brought over only ten head — 

 all from the island of Majorca, and sold them mostly 

 in and around Higginsville, Mo. They were of ex-

 Many of them were black, but never having seen the 

 importation we cannot say what proportion, nor do 

 we know the exact number imported. Some of them, 

 however, have been registered, and judging from these
