Red Russell, 2:14 IA, by Gilbert Red
that John H. Dillon, the New Haven.
Conn, horseman selected down in Mary
la nd last fall, was sold privately during
the Old Glory sale to Thomas W. Murphy.
While the price was not made public, it is
known to have been one of the best paid
this year for prospective stake trotter.
The deal was made by trainer Billy" Croz-
Ter, who raced the horse number of times
in the fall, and later worked him mile in
POT IA at Hartford.-The Review, Chica-
90, Ill. Red Russell was bred and reared
by Fields Bros, on their farm near Der
wood, this county. Before they parted with
him he was given record of git Ia at
the age of three years. We learn from
reliable source that the present owner paid
$1,000 for him. Mr. Murphy is the most
successful reinsman in this country, and
in his hands Red Russells admirers here,
with knowledge of his fleetness at the
trotting gait, surmise that he will take
record close to two minutes in his cam
paien through the Grand Circuit next sum-
mer, where he will race against horses of
the highest class.
