lie ran at Tree Hill a most interesting and
hard contested race, when he was beaten by
Goliah, at four heats-Bayard and many others,
were in this race, and Nullifer was only beat
one footth last heat. The next week he went
to Baltimore and ran over the Central Course,
four mile heats for the Jockey Club purse,

avery hard race; many other horses running,
but only these two contending. The next fall

race he won at four heats, beating seven others,
after he had lost the first end second heats. In
this race he got one of his sinews sprung; and
has not been trained since.
The above is all correct and true.
