day of the Battenkll Valley fair, which
was marked by the best racing seen here
in seven years. The 2;50 class was d!
vided into two races but it was in the

In the latter event four horses started
and each got heat in sensational FIN

third owing TO n disability sustained in
the first heat The money was divided
between the other three after the fourth
heat owing to the fact that rules Of the
National Trotting association do not
allow trotting after shutdown and judges
and owners did not wish to complete the
