THIRD DAY.
The third and last day of the fair was a
record breaker, and the Society is salts
fed that the Waldo County Fair is again
assuming the position it deserves among
the county fairs of the State. The peo-
pie came early, visited the side shows,
looked over the hall exhibits, enjoyed the
races and went home satisfied. With the
impetus (and cash) which this three-days
fair has given the society is now in posi-
tlon to do active work and bring the fair to
the front.
Belfast Band was in attendance the after
moons of the second and third days and
played before the starting and between the
heats. The races Thursday were equal to
any seen in this section for a long time, and
the track record of 2.22a was lowered in the
1.19 class by Will Curry in the first heat, to
2.2oa. There were seven starters in the PIG
class, and the horses came in under the wire
in bunch in every heat. It was the fastest
race ever trotted on the grounds, the slowest
heat being in 22344, and the average of the
four heats just equal to the previous track
record 2.22a. The horses were kept we'll in
hand, and no breaks were made serious
enough to effect the result. Following is
the summary:
2.19 class, trot or pace, purse $50.

There were six starters in the 2.45 class,
which was won in three straight heats by
Delight, entered and driven by G. B. Ingra-
ham of West Rockport. Mr.. Ingraham has
driven horses on the track forty-six con-
secutive years, and does his work as thor
oughly and with as much ease as any of the
younger drivers. His appearance on the
track is always greeted with cheers, and
'sUncle Gil' finds a warm greeting wherever
he goes. While Delight was an easy win
ner, the contest for second position between
Little Chick and Pinny was sharp, the two
coming in almost neck and neck every time.
