Peninsula enterprise. [volume] (Accomac, Va.) 1881-1965, 1901-08-17

The second race brings the min
,, ute class to the stand-Mamie d.
i, Black Bill, Larry and Walker Nor
rill Jr., all OF Virginia. 1t looks like
this race should be we'll contested
with chances In favor of Larry owned
by q clever young attorney OF the
Accomac Bar, who occasions lily takes
a dash In harmless sports for recrea-
ton, with Black Bill chasing him
from wire to wire.
The last race brings together Sam
Patch, White Foot ham. Basil and
Forney, In the 2:3s class Forney was
entered here last year but would not
start because he was afraid he would
bs driven to mark. He Is a year
older now and his dashing owner has
doubtless found out he can't win
money by keeping him in the stable.
he starts la this race and wins with
Basil In second place. Basil enters
regularly by force OF habit and wins
| by outclassing his field.
Thursday is the day everybody
comes and IL they will leave at once
after seeing the 2:1S class they will
have had the worth of their money.
White Tips, Gold Bur and Roberta
make up this race and lucky indeed
are they that none others will be in to
bother them. II Gold Bur and White
Tips are in good form Roberta will
take third money with battle from
wire to wire between the leaders.
These horses are splendid performers
and the qualities of their sires that
made them great have descended
to the sons. Lucky Dick" collars the
BOBBY prize-his entrance fee.
1928 trot and 2;3O pace has caught
the eye of News Boy, Martha Ford,
Happy Jack, Judge Kendall and
Bursary We have here stopper
from town of Berlin, Md, entered by
our good friend, Il. T. Savage. This
gentleman is not given to reckl ess
investments or grand stand amuse-
ments. II he don't win here it is be-
cause he figured wrong. However
he has Bursary to reckon with and
everybody knows he Is a good one.
Any how, II Tom don't win he will
take his medicine like a man and
turn up in Berlin next day as chips
per as ever.
a special closes this splendid days
sport from horses evenly matched
and driving race may be looked for
with the winner pulling down the
prize by an eye lash finish.
The last day opens and everybody |
is sorry the end is so near. The 2:20
pace is the first on the bill of fare
and We have two entries from Mary
land and one from Virginia and it
does look like the odds should be in
that proportion against our home
horse. Noah entered by Hentchall,
Numa by w. II. Cacy, and Little
Joe by q. A. Rogers make up this
field. they will get the word with
out much jockeying and heart dis
ease finish may be looked for. II
Little Joe wins here his reputation
10 established and his genial young
owner buds out full fiedged sports
Ill IN with the Fairs endorsement to
travel North.
A special is next on the card, the
character OF which the management :
has kept secret or l would tell you
every word Of it.
2:5J class Is next on the programme
and good field faces the starter, viz:
Black Bill, FELTON,, Ida Gray, Wal
ker Morrill, Jr. and Miss James. This {
should be in all honesty one of the
best races oil the meeting and il Fell
ton owned by the gay and dashing 8
,portsman from Green Bush should X
win don't say,I did not tip him. He r
8 good one and you had better q
keep your eye on him. C
The Fair winds up with free for {
all running race, no entrance fee and t
nobody barred. The purse is $4,000
divided in four monies. Bring your
Did plug along and pull of prize.
You are welcome. But what "a job ;
ot OF miss-fts this will be. All ages, r
kinds and conditions go. A surgeon 1
will be in attendance to look after c
he wounded. 9
This is true sport of your fore
athers when Glencoe, scott and
such great thoroughbreds We'd with
zach other for supremacy. Mirth and
nerry-making always gladdened, Z
hose occasions and the big hearted
portsmen of those grand old days r
nucked up their dollars like they
we're oak leaves and they had forests
ull Of them. But right here let me F
ay, l enjoined you last year not to A
ret, and my observation since that d
ime has not ca used Inc to change my
.dvice. 1t Is not in good taste to
speak of ones experience, besides, r.
ew people ever profited by their own
nd none by that of others.
