clse Mt two heats
The next week he ran for sweepstakes over the
same course on Long Island, to which there were Sc
Won Subscribers, $500 each, which be won ut two
lIeats in quick time, beating Rob Roy. Splendid Sc
Bath OF these horses, that he easily beat have
since been winners on the Northern courses.
The fall after he trained, and run in bad
health, and of course in bad ORDER aud was beat by
Red Murdoch and Arieh-tho in his then condition
ne performed well.-Samc fall he ran for sweeu-
stakes the Belfield course, mile heats sub
scribers, 5000 each, which hc won with great
case. beating Col. Wynns horse Merlin and Mr..

Next week he won the purse al New Market
three mile heats in fine time and style beating the
truly formidable Ariel without difficulty
ut two hcnts and running the second heat in SIN. 49s
This was the last he started for he wing s,Is
famed an injury in his shouder-Vhich always re-
turned on hiEo whsn put in exercise This will &C.
count for his having been taken from the turf 50
soon.I have better evidence however ofhis running
stvcrai times had private trials with Snow Storm,
Sally Walker and Trumpator, that were certainly
good runners. and c5n say with truth that neither
ofihem ever locked him after running half mile
This shouhl not have mentioned had not Arthur
Taylcr and Mr. Badger both seen these trials and
know the correctness of this statement.
