A thoroiigli bred Stallion For Sale. 



For sale, at a low price, the thorough bred Horse, 

 John Bell— a sure foal getter, Of him C. F. M. Noland 

 of Arkansas writes: "I raised "John Bell," Boston 

 is his sire. The Pedigree of Boston has been pub- 

 lished a dozen times in the Register and Spirit. The 

 dam of John Bell was Lilly — she by Eclipse out of 

 Garland by Duroe. Garland was the dam of Port 

 Boy, (the Northern Champion when Bascomb beat 

 him), Fauquier and Suffolk. I run John Bell as one 

 of the very best bred horses in America. Lelly's I'ed-
