Also, The pure-bred Clydesdale Entire Horse, SIR WILLIAM WALLACE. Sir William Wallace is a dark dapple bay, with black points, 16fr hands high, with immense bone ; has splendid action, and is a sure foal getter. Sir William Wallace was bred by John Ross, Esq., Forest Hill, Smeaton, Victoria ; his sire was the well-known and far-famed pure-bred Clydesdale Stallion Major, imported by J. &. W. Dougall, Escott, Victoria. Major waa bred by the well-known breeder, W. Fulton, Sproulston, Scotland; Major's sire, Clyde Boy, Sire of Sir Walter Scott — the grandest stallion Scotland ever produced. Major's prizes are too numerous to mention. Major's dam, Princess Royal. Wallace's dam, Jenny, was exhibited fifteen times, and gained thirteen first and one jaecoud prize in 1865. She was awarded the Cbampion Prize at Ballarat for the best mare in the yard, either imported or colonial against seventeen competitors In 1872 at the same place, she gained the first prize with three of her progeny. Sir William Wallace was shown seven times and gained six first and one second prize. He was shown at BaUarat, Smeaton, and Clunes as a yearling, and was awarded first prize in each place. When two years old he was awarded first prize at Clunes ; also first prize at Ballarat, and second at Smeaton. When three years old he was again awarded first prize at Ballarat, thus showing Sir Wallace to be one of the best bred horses that the colony has ever preduced, -His stock was awarded first, second, and third prizes in Palmerston, Victoria, in 1872, and also first and second at the same place in 1873. Sir William Wallace's pedigree, and the number of prizes taken by him and his stock, at some of the best shows in the Southern Hemisphere, are sufficient guarantees to assure the public that he is a first-class horse, and second to none in the Province. He is perfectly quiet, and staunch as a rock in harness. F. H. WOOD & CO., Auctioneers, Horse and Cattle Salesmen, Greytown, 813 Wairarapa.
