The lovers of good horses, and especi-
ally fast ones. and the admirers of good
driving are much elated over the COM
ing into our town of Mr.. Jerry Parker,
g professional driver of trotters for
many years, to spend the season driving
and training few trotters upon our
track, which by the way we claim is
one of the best in the State, it having
been recently fitted up in fine shape un-
der the uperintendency of Mr.. Mason
Perham. Mr.. Parker has now few
very promising young horses and expects
more, he has for the past few years been
engaged by Mr.. Hastings Of Brandon,
(who has bought and sold more fast horses
than any man in the State during the
the past few years, to drive his and Jer-

Z that lawsuit will arise from advancing
a the school facilities of our village and
# town. The case cited by Hector in the
\ AZ Report has not the slightest bearing
