Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1868-10-22
Wednesaay-secOnd Day.

The crowd in attendance yesterday was
larger than on Tuesday, Notwithstanding
the rain of Tuesday night and the threat
eDing clouds yesterday morning. The ex-
hibition of rlules and horses Of all work
was large, and lively interest was mani
tested by the spectators. The ring and
track were wet and heavy, causing the
stock TO present rather muddy appear
ance.
T An erroneous impression had gotten
abroad that the pacing and troiting match
in harness. for one hundred dollars each,
which had been announced for Friday,
Would take place on yesterday.
We noticed Capt. s. T. Widener, of
Nashville, there, with "Ku-Klux" and
"Datch Dave" both'of which horses will
doubtless be entered in the matches of
Friday and Saturday,
On Tuesday evening, during the trotting
race in harness, the mare of Mr.. Sirick-
land, Of Giles county, cut herself with her
fore foot, from which wound she bled very
profusely, and which caused her to lose the
race.
We neglected on yesterday to notice the
unusually fine lot Of sheep, including
bucks, ewes and lambs, belonging TO VIM.
S. Campbell, which were shown on Tues-
