uncertainty as to what conditions are
necessary TO make white or colored

trainers and others, fixes the basis for
such "A determination on the number of

held that the number Of families living

upon the designation as TO white or

live in the same house. this gives
ground for considerable controversy.

the horses were intended for, but he
was unwilling by his vote to further
