10 take the mount and do tho best could
Mclaughlin then told briefly the story Of the race

Elghtto. seven, Terra Gotta, santaIene, Leo H., En-
durer Hamlet, Big Three an' cara c. Terra Gotta
and santalone we're coupled the books, as was
Uonig's entry, Rnduor leo II. Mclaughlin
WA I'D on Terra Gotta aud Leavy Santaleno, and
despite the fact that ToTa Gotta had 40 pounds on
his back tho entry was made o 10 10 favorite, and
considerable money was bet on tho result. Other
horses were also well backed, particularly leo II.
and Eight to. Seven, while numbers Of people backed
fell Hamlet was first away Clara c. and SantAlene
next in order. Terra Gotta In the second division
Clara c. took tho lead passing the stand, ard kept In

and in tho last two Jumps she won by tho shortest
of noses Terra Gotta two lengths away.
" Law was slck,r Mclaughlin continued, and
when pulled up he got rattlod and dropped hts reins
We were then almost the post. Santalen0
