THIRD DAY-ADDITIONAL RACES AND AN
OTHER GOOD CROWD.
Yesterdays attendance was not so
large as that of Wednesday, but the sec
ond day always sees the most people on
hand. There was fair-siZed crowd
present, however, and they appeared to
be enjoying themselves, too.
At 10 80 a. m. the matched horses en-
tered for premiums were brought out on
the track and were logged around twice,
after which came the gentlemen's single
drivers. Matched pairs were entered by
II. :. Brookins of Shoreham, Marshall
& Landon of Middlebury, c. II. Smith
of Nergennes, F. f. Dean of Cornwall
and G.. G. Stickney of Shoreham. Single
drivers were entered by c. ii. Smith of
Vergennes, Gusta Muller of Cornwall,
w. j. Nash of New Haven, c. y. Ly-
man of Middlebury, =. V. Hathaway of
Middlebury, II. b. Wright of Waltham,
Fred Marseilles of Middlebury, L. g.
Harrington of Richville, c. l.. Payne of
Bridport and Charles Seeley of Middle
bury. The matched pairs and single
drivers were fine lot of horses, and it
was a delicate question for the judges to
decide which ones were entitled to the
premiums. Hon. d. w. Nash of New
lIaven and Col. n. F. Dunshee of Bristol
were the Judges in both classes.
In the afternoon came the race for foals
of 1887 and the 40 race. In the four

close race between Harkaway, Jr., and

was unable to get a heat. Pegasus was
not in it at all, yet won third money
easily. Charley h. got in second in every
heat, so that Harkaway, Jr., took the
race and first money in three straights.
