Cresceus, the grand stallion owned by
George Ketcham, of Cleveland, Ohio, was
crowned king of trotters during the sea-
son of 1901 taking the honor from The
Abbot, who had taken the title from
Queen A1ix the year previous. Cresceus
made a record of 2:o24 in a race against
The Abbot, the latter getting a mark OF
203A, which was a half second better
than the mark Of Alix and three-quar-
ters better than Nancy Hanks famous
record. A list Of the trotting champions
from 1916 down to the present time win
no doubt prove interesting. They are as
