be able to remember when lie was not
in the county clerks office, but it is
doubtful. Mr.. Booker copied Il deed

much older than that, so he says, but
was acting rs deputy for his father.

y thrilling exhibition of superb
hOrscmanship and brute sagacity was

about years old. Whcn about op-
posite the car sheds ut Brightwood one
of the old wOrnout cars came down the
track and reached the spot ut the same

to the car and ii made almost as much
noise rs Il locomotive, added to which
was the humming Of the motor. The
young thoroughbred pranccd and
paved the earth rs the car approach

Just ut the instant the car was pass
Ing the driving outfit, the now thor
ouShly frightened animal wheeled
around Oh the track and directly In

tie horse made his dash for the track
The young man handling the rcins gave
mighty rUll on the rcins and almost
instantly drew the frightened animal
straigh; rp nn his hind legs. There he
stood pawiig the mir. not more than 4

he remained until the grinding convey
