TJp to the present time I have refused to sell. By reference to 

 this catalogue it will be seen that the animals possess the blood of 

 the celebrated racers, American Eclipse, Monarch, Trustee, Boston, 

 Sarpedon, Emilius, Glencoe, Polly Hopkins, Ariel, Fashion, Lance, 

 and many others of the olden time, and Kentucky, Lexington and 

 Leamington of the present day. The trotters possess the blood of 

 Messenger, Mambrino, Abdallah, Bellfounder, Rysdycks Hamble- 

 tonian, Major Winfield and Norman. I think I have formed a 

 nucleus for a breeding establishment which, if properly conducted 

 hereafter, will be productive of good to the country, and may re- 

 imhurse me. I, therefore, invite all who may take an interest in 

 the subject to attend an exhibition of about 55 head embracing 

 the entire stud, which will take place at my residence, Mount 

 Fordham, during the days of the Spring meeting at Jerome Park, 

 from the 4th to the 11th of June. On Wednesday the 8th, at one 

 o'clock P. M., will sell at public auction, about one-half; which 

 will be of nearly if not equal merit with those reserved. A 

 positive sale may be expected as the limits of my establishment 

 will not warrant a larger increase.
