Hyder Ali by imp. Leamington, son of Paugli-a-Ballagb, bred by A. Welch 

 Erdenheim Stud, Pa., foaled 1872, dam Lady Duke, by Lexington, out of Magdalen, dam 

 of Bonnie Lassie, Bonnie Laddie, etc., by Medoc, son of American Eclipse. Hyder Ali 

 as a, three-year old started in three races, of which he won one. .Jerome Park, won 

 the Champagne Stakes for two-year olds, three-quarters of a mile in 1 :20, beating James, 

 A, Pinework, and six others ; was beaten in a match race of $2,500 each, three- 

 quarters of a mile, won by James A, in 1:19 ; was third in a dash of three-quarters 

 of a mile, won by James A, iul:18i. He was injured in the spring of his three-year 

 old year, and did not run again. His dam. Lady Duke, was not trained, and had only 

 a few foals, amongst them Mary Buckley, a good mare and dam of Buckstone. 

 Magdalen his grandam was a good race-mare, and the dam of the great race-mare 

 Bonnie Lassie, and the horse Bonnie Laddie which had great reputation in their day. 

 Bonnie Lassie won the Association Stakes, mile heats, and the Citizen's Stake, 3 mile 

 heats, at Lexington, Ky., in 1857. She won many important races in the South. 

 Gossamer, another sister to Bonnie Lassie was dam of Leather Lungs, La 

 Rose and Gossip, the latter dam of Lida Gaines. The Sumpter Mare 

 dam of Magdalen was the dam of Keph, and Leda both successful racers. Hyder 

 Ali is a large, well developed horse, full 16 hands high, with great substance and 

 power. In addition to his being a son of Leamington, he is strongly inbred on tiie 

 dam's side to Sir Archy and Diomed, having six crosses of that inestimable blood upon 

 a large infusion of Medley blood, and thence to the noted Gimcrack by Cripple, son of 

 Godolphin Arabian (Barb). Upon the matrons of the Meadows Stud we expect to re- 

 cord his success.
