Jack spratt's Feat.
John Haines sent Jack Spratt around
between the races to beat his record of
2221. The running horse, Cyclone,
went around as an encourager. The old
veteran trotter stepped out with that
familiar swing of his and kept it up I'M
til he got to the quarter pole, where
a crowd of people were standing by the
gate. Then he made slight skip which
caused him to lose a pocket toe piece
weighing one-quarter of pound from
his fore foot. He Immediately settled
down again but he had kind of plunge
in his gait, caused by the loss of the
weight. The half was made in 1.094 and
as he came tearing down the home
stretch john yelled and the crowd
yelled. But it wasn't circumstance to
the noise they made when moment
later the board showed record of
221 fiat for the mile. Without the loss
of the toe weight Mr.. Haines feels sure
the time would have been 2.20. Mr..
Haines was presented with beautiful
bouquet of flowers as he dismounted
from the sulky which was one of the
high wheeled kind.
