FAMOUS ENGLISH RACE HORSE
Eclipse, Bred by the Duke Of cumber.
land. Was the Sensation of
His Generation.

That celebrated race horse, Eclipse,
which died Feb. %, 1889, at the ripe
age Of 25 years, received his name on
account Of his being born during an
eclipse of the sun, and it became curl
ously significant and appropriate when
In mature life he was found to pass
all contemporary horses as regarding
speed.
Eclipse was bred by the Duke of
Cumberland, a brother of George III,
and afterward became the property of
Dennis O'Kelly who on his death be-
queathed the animal, along with all
his brood mares and other horses, to
his brother Philip For many years
Eclipse lived in retirement from the
turf, but was in other ways a source
OF considerable revenue to his owner
on account Of the many visitors who
came to see the renowned hero Of the
race track who was passing his last
days at Clay Hill near EPSON.
In those days it was not the custom
to insure the lives of animals, and
the fact that Eclipse was insured for
an enormous sum only made his popu-
larity the greater. When it became
necessary to remove him he was so
worn out that carriage had to be
especially constructed to carry him.
The secret of his immense success
was revealed by the autopsy, when it
was discovered that his heart was of
unusual size, as it weighed thirteen
