Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFORD PRION'S breeding canuot be excelled, ns his pedigree contains the names of most of the greatest stud successes known to fame.

CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventure, through her 3ire Adventurer, is a greatgranddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg e.g. dam of Peradventiire, was Riddlesworth S granddam. • Manganese won the 1000 guinew, and is tho granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. I.eger, better known as "The Parson's Mire," and Agility, another celebrity.

She afterwards , at auction realised a thousand guineas, [ Guesswork'going to tho same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas. 1 Peradvcnturo's four foals by Gang Forward j were sold for two thousand six hundred and f thirty guineas, an average of over Bix hundred and fifty guineas each which would J have hen. largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition aocordiug to arrangement after the first bid, and it should be romembcred that f these prices were obtained in one of the [. Australian colonies where the money invested , in thoroughbred horses can be counted by ' hundreds of thousands sterling. Owing to v Priory was not trained. Ho was used for , one season as a sire, and his stock promise well. j As CRAWFORD PRIORY is not likely to be more than ono season in the Wairarapa, j breeders are invited to take advantage of the ) presence amongst them of a sire of tho very highest class. t Terms, £6 Qs each mare, A reduction for two or more, the bona lido property of J sender.
