DUNEDTN HORSE SALEYARDS. Messrs. Wright, Slephenson, and Co., report as follows :—: — The entry for Saturday's sale was very small and with one exception, of veey poor quality. A ' very
good -dpalught gelding, five years old, and suitable for heavy town work, was offered, and soon reached £50 10s, at which bid he was passed in, the owner's reserve not being obtained. There were several buyers present for good, young, sound geldings fit for town work, ani we can safely recommend consignments of this class, which could easly be placed at full rates.
