] The novice harness horses opened the
show. and a good looking lot answered the
/ bugie call az o'clock. but il was evident
! from the first that the Watson entries were
going 10 make the rest of the contestants
look TO their laurels. George Watson, jr..
sat behind Florham Regent while the
/ chestnut stallion Florham Sensation, was
in the hands of Charles Barrie. who evil
/ IDENTIFY had all that he could manage. In
! fact the big stallion proved 10 be a little
more than he could handle for after few
moments in the ring he decided TO rid him
self Of all encum brances in the way of
driver. harness and vehicle. He used his
heels so freely that the devastation was
complete in about five seconds after he con-
ceived the thought.
