ticularly suited to Paul Jones. which
was fortunate in being in motion at the

by Tippity Witchet and Tryster. For
few strides approaching the back stretch
Tippity found the lead. but Rice sent
Paul Jones to the command, while
Tryster moved up to dispute ere they
had arrived at the half mile ground.
