The sport dwindled into nothing, and the walks over
occasioned much tedious delay. The racing was chiefly
remarkable for the double victory of Melissa, who car-
ried off both the Warwickshire Stakes and Cup.
" The Cup," or rather group, illustrates one of the
most popular legends of Warwickshire—that of the
compassionate Lady Godiva. It was modelled by Mr.
'rearmost, chief of the fine art department at Messrs. El-
kington and Mason's. The group is mounted on a
richly adorned pedestal, on the sides of which are bronze
cbasings in high relief. Permission has been obtained
to allow the prize. to be forwarded to the King of the
Belgians, for his Majesty's inspection.
