Enoch Wishard writes from England
| and is very much pleased at the hospita-
BILE manner in which he has been treated
by all with whom he has come in contact
| at Newmarket, and that Mrs. wishard
| and himself are delighted with their sur
| roundings. Reiff, the jockey, has gained
| 10 pounds In weight and has already
caught on to carrying his cane at the
| right angle, fast acquiring the swing of
the swell horsey Britisher.
The horses of the wishard string are
| doing splendidly and some are so forward
| that Wishard intends starting them at
Newmarket at April II.

as was intended when the string was
shipped.
