FIFTEENTH DAY:
Baker commenced his fifteenth dad's journer rin
Tuesday morning, et a quarter before two ','clerk.
After walking vie miles he stopped three.quarters of
an hour fur refreshment : ow aecorr;ii•hitig 10i
stile, be stopped again tot three.quartersof an hem,
and at eight o'clock completed 15 mites, at which
time he went to breakfast ; in half at; hour he true.
iced his journey, and includdrg stoppages finished 31
miles at a quarter after nee, he then retired to dinner.
Ho commenced again at two, walked till shout five,
and accomplished .111 miles, and went to tea ; lu half
an hour he continued his tack, and dually completed
50 miles 192 rods, at a quarter after eight.
Although Baker had proposed walking late on
Monday night he was persuaded to relinquish his
task, after having stalked only 171 miles, l 4 rods,
that he might in some measure add to his bodily
health by resting, and also on account of the indif-
ferent state of the ground. This plan he adopted,
and commenced his task neat morning at the early
hoer above stated, by which means he finished his
daily undertaking in as geed spirits, and as much
ease-as his first day. Ott retiring from the grot m!
be was loudly cheered by the spectators. Betting has
varied materially since Sunday.
