To cover, Young Emperor, the full blooded hunter Young Emperor was got by the noted imported horse Emperor, his dam a full-blooded hunter. Emperor was imported by Col. Burrel of Virginia, and has proved to be the best horse for stock in that place Young Emperor is a fine bay, five years old, sixteen hands two inches high, handsomely marked, moves well; he is just and well formed, and bids fair for getting the best stock either for saddle or harness of any horse in America. Young Emperor will cover, in the county of Ulster, at the Platt-Kill, at Mr. Matthias Warner's one week, and the next week at Mr. Brown's mills, changing weekly throughout the season, at the very low price of two dollars the single leap, to be paid down; five dollars the season, eight dollars to insure the mare with foal, to be paid by the first of November, in cash, or wheat at the market price. March 20, 1796.
