going over fifth, and Emblematic, who alighted in the
water, was last over. Going out of the course, after pro-
ceeding about half a mile, Emblematic refused, and retired
to the rear; but in the next 200 yards O'Connell and Chas-
ter also refusing, the Liverpool winner went on fourth, a
long way, however, behind Fly Fisher. At this same
fence Lincoln and Woodford swerved on the wrong side of

mile and a half Lincoln took second place, Fly Fisher still
holding the lead, but at such a slow pace that Woodford
and Emblematic were within an easy distance of the other

ning, but was again deprived of the lead approaching the

Bloodhound, Cooksboro', and St. George as their imme-
diate followers to the water-jump, where St. George,

latter having dropped into a grip just before reaching the
water, unfortunately broke his back, and was destroyed on
the spot. After this the three came on in close order to the
fence out of the big meadow, which Cooksboro' was the
first to clear, Ladbrooke Lass second, Miss Laurie close
with them to the gorse fence, where Cooksboro' was beaten
