a single mile, with Bayard and Pamunky-the former
was considered a frst-rate two mile horse. Pamunkv
beat Bayard the two miles, running in the rear for one
mile and three quarters. In the mile race, after half an
hour, he beat Bayard a few feet in the mile. We believed
%Pamunky TO be a better horse at that time than Bavard-
The two miles was run in 3m. and SIS, and the one mile
in I'm. and 55s. We believe that Pamunky was injured
IN mat trial, and in a few weeks after broke down.
Given under our hands, this 23d Dec, 1882.
