 Dan Patch has a record of 1.55 fl but this was made behind a wini shield, and is not an official record and his owner has again and again de clined to meet Audubon Boy, although MT. Gatcomb, his owner, has done ev erything possible to induce Mir. Say age 10 make a match race.
 The fair commissioners feel sure that they can safely count on havint the track record here established very close to 200, and possobly tn, worlds record beaten
