Heiscumo of ii great family, His dam was sold at 800 guineas when good mares wero sold at a fonrth uf that price, She is out of a blackleg maro-one of a family of four, out of the same dam, and the quartette, by .Renfrew Jock, were tho four best horeoa ever bred in the Oatqaru district. ; AVON, by Avon Chief, (150 N.Z.S.B). bred by W, Boag, Esq,, Fcndalton, near Christchurch, out uf hia famous prize mare Grace Dirliiur.

AVOWS dam Gipsy, by Renfrew Jock(185) imported from Victoria; g sire Renfrew imported (rum Scotland; g dam Jobs by Blackleg imported from Scotland, Renfrew Jock's dam Rose, by Crowden Lad, a famous Clydesdale imported from Scotland by the lato David Kesbitfc. Renfrew Jock was a moßt euooeseful show• hone. Before leaving Victoria ho took many firsts, and he was first for three years in succession in Oamaru, Timaru, and Duuedin, and Champion nf the yard as well.. From this history breeders will recognise that they havo in Avon not only a how) of good parts, but an Entire of good lineage, n matter altogether different to a good-looking horse. The groat p»int in horao-biceding is to have a tire connected with good families of undoubted character. In the one, caso the Btock will be uniformly good, whilo intho other case individuals may surpass, but tho general character of the stock will be inferior and disappointing. Nothing is moro grievous to a breeder than to see weeds spring from a goodlooking eiro. Terms,Ls, payable by F.N. at first sorvice, due January 1.1888.'
