An amusing race took place in front of
the Marshall house a day or two ago. An
CID colored man was driving down the
street in an oX-carb when a fashionable
carriage attempted to pass him. The old
man kept very quiet ultil the carriage got
alongside Of him. He looked up and saw
the naughty colOred driver in his livery.
and he decided that it should b5 q race. He
lashed his OK and the fun began. The little
steer was feet-footed and he ran neck and
neck with the carriage team to Abercorn
street. The old man was tickled
and when the cross street was
reached, he drew up his Staed
and broke out IN the biggest kind of alaugh.
The carriage driver was much mortified.
ana he did not even so much as turn his
head to look at the old man, but the ladies
i'll the carriage enjoyed the fun hugely.
