PEDESTRIANISM
The match between the veteran pedestrian Townshend and
Smith, the Deptford butcher, took place yesterday between
the fifth and sixth mile-stones on Blackheath. It excited
k
interest in the sporting world. The distance to be per-
vas fifty miles for 25/. a-side. The men started at a
few minutes ore eight o'clock in the morning. Tl:e odds
were in favour Or TOwnAcnd, but Smith was freely backed,
he being much the
yclniger man and of known bottom. They
walked the first eighteen n:jlcs at more than six miles an hour,
and here it was seen that Sm;!11 must be beaten, Townshend
then began to head him, and at three o'clock, when be com-
pleted his 38th riffle, he was nearly three miles a-head, and
continued to gain on his opponent until the end of the match,
which he won with apparent ease, having completed the fifty
miles in nine hours and twenty minutes. -We understand that
the betting was not very heavy.
