OLD FREELAND.
\ Famous Race Horse with 1.-THE Derby
Winner" Company.


The report has been started some
where that the famous old horse, Old
Freeland. who made a fortune for the
Chicago turfman, Ed Corrigan, and
whose wonderful string of victories are
part of turf history, had passed in his
checks. and was planted away under
the blue grass of Kentucky. Al Spinks,
the authOr-manage of The Derby
Winner" who has Old Freeland with
him on the present tour OF his play,
which will be seen at the Opera House,
Monday night was fairly flooded with
kilograms and letters inquiring as TO
where and how the old campaigner had
died. and the publication of the little
item had cost Mr.. Sphinx about S25 in
Geographic responses, postage stamps,
etc, not mentioning a great deal Of
time and labor.
Old Freeland occupies a warm spot
in the hearts of turf patrons and when
il was reported several years ago, after
he had run his brilliant course, that
Ed COrrigan proposed to put him over
the timber il aroused the indignation
of thousands of turf patrons, and their
warmth was evinced in a marvellous
diversity OF ways. Dick Carey,
known throughout turfdom as Hyder
Ali, famous turf writer, took up the
hue and cry, and voiced the popular in
dignation in poetry. lie penned a
beautiful poetic tribute to Old Free
land. upon whom he bestowed the so
briQuet of the grandest race-h horse in
all the land. One verse of it will SUI
flee to show The state of feeling into
which the lovers OF the turf had been
worked up when they were led to be-
lieve Old Freeland was not to get the
rest he had honestly Won Ii is as fol-
lows:
They are schooling Old Freeland over
the timber,
Over the fences and walls of stone.
My heart CLEANS up like a dying ember,
That burns in the darkness all alone.
And l fancy again, as l sit here, dream
ing.
l hear the cheers from the crowded
stand.
As they hailed him there in the sun
light cleaning
The grandest race-hOrse in all the
land
