CAREER OF A HORSE.

The famous old PAGER, Little Brown
jug. (2:11A). died a few days ~ at
Cleburn farm, near Spring Hill, Tenn.
He was "a years of age, and had seen
all the ups and downs of horse life.
Foaled within a few miles of the farm
where he died, he was sold as a.weanling
for $27. so, and then for $45. and again for
$50 before he was three years Old. Three
years after having changed hands for $50
he lowered the worlds record for pace. s
and was sold by II. V. Bemis of Chicago
to Commodore N. w. kittson of st. Paul
for $40, 900, the highest price, 1t is said,
hat has ever been paid for a PAGER in
training. His record of 2:11% was made
at Hartford. Conn.,, Aug. "a, 1881. in a
race in which he defeated Lucy and
Matte Hunter. His three winning heats,
in 2:11A, 2:11A n 2:12A, stood for near
ly 10 years as the fastest three heats on
record. After the death of Commodore
Kittson the champion PAGER was cast
adrift, and was for a time lost sight of.
Several years later he turned UP in he
shafts of a huckster's wagon in Cleve-
land, and then in Buffalo, where he was
owned by one of the notorious characters
of the town, receiving cruel treatment.
About this time the Tennessee poet, John
TrotWood Moore, started a fund to buy
the old PAGER and take him back to the
home of his youth. Captain Campbell,
owner of Brown Jugs full brother. Brown
Hal (2:12) (sire of Star Pointer, 1:59A),
agreed to pay the freight from Buffalo
to Spring Hill and give him a home as
long as he lived. About the time that
his great relative, Star Pointer, set the
pacing record below 300. the champion Of
1881 reached Cleburne farm. where he re-
manned until his death a few days ago
Brown jug was the first horse that drew
attention to the now famous tribe of
Tom Hal PAGERS in Tennessee.
