resulted in the following clause be-

You will recoIlect said the strongest and richest breeding of the trotter were the Electi0neers or the George Wilkes on you say at sale of carriage horses in New York, last week, one horse brought g. 800. That horse WAS The Turk, grandson of Belmont and trotter as well. Now if you will bear with me I will copy from the American Horse Breeder little more fully than you did The fancy prices which are now paid for trotting-bred high steppers should encourage farmers and all small breeders to try to raise that class. The Turk, which brought $7,800 at auction in New Y ork City, last week, ia one of that kind. He is six-year-old bay gelding, with four white feet and strip in the face, stands Is 1,2 hands at the withers. He fig trotting-bred, and 1t is claimed that he has Urotted trial mile in 2 17 l 2 There are plenty of horses which have trotted in 2.17 2 that can be bought for $500, some of them for much less. IS was his high action all around, knee and hook, that added the other $7 900 to his value.' Here is another from the Breed CT: "Prices of trotting bred cosehers are climbing. It looks now as though trot ters with high knee and hook action would out-sell those with extremely fast records. Broker Thomas W. Lawson of this city has just paid $10 900 for one of that kind" He, too, was grandson of George Wilkes. Not but what there are other good breeds, but the Election eers or George Wilkes on enc side and Belmont on the other stand at the head of all others; although it has taken thousands of dollars and years of expe- rience to demonstrate 1t. With all due respect to the pscers I think he would need more than the sympathy of any Newtown horseman to bring him into the same class with the trotter. I think my friend must stand behind 8 pacing gun when he says the pace is the natural gait. How is it that there is not one horse in 10, either slow or fast, as you meet them, that paces, and are allowed to take their natural gait at that?
 Now, Friend Charles, did not not in- tend to be personal in this matter only so far as it was necessary to answer the questions that you put in your article, and trust you will accept it in that light.
 And you will find me ever ready and willing to talk the matter over in 8 friendly manner, as I have no interest whatever in any sire, only In 8 general way. I am living on Easy Street now as far as the horse business u concerned, or shall be when that deep-lsid sdver. tisement of mine brings forth its fruit and I get rid of that colt of mine that is bred in the purple. Yours very truly, [E. Taylor.

The little church was crowded to the doors b, Washington citizens and people from Newtown, New Milford and Roxbury. The service was most impressIvely ren- dered by the rector, Rev Mir Robinson, and while the hearts of all were sadden- ed by the thought Of the friend who had gone, they could not help but have their faith quickened, and their grief tighten. ed, by the positive message of hope, which was brought to every soul by the minister in this beautiful service. At the close of the service in the church the body was carried to the cemetery, where. Rev MT Robinson gave the committa1 service. Those present from out of town included Charles H.
