live, drove Leicester. Elliott, a market gardener 

 from Philadelphia, was up behind his mare Aline. 

 Carey drove Junemont, who caused considerable 

 trouble for a couple of heats. Jackson I. Case had 

 Clara Wilkes and Geers the Mambrino King mare 

 Henrietta. 



• Spear did not make a Inove for the first heat. 

 Goldsmith winning it easily from Kenwood with 

 Henrietta third. On the second trip Leicester and 

 Temple Bar were lapped at the three-quarter pole, 

 the balance of the field being strung out behind 

 them. As they passed the distance Spear stopped 

 driving and Goldsmith won by two lengths. 



Colonel William Edwards, who was acting as 

 starter and presiding judge, did not like the drive 

 and spoke about it at the time. Prior to the third 

 heat he requested H. M. Hanna, who was one of the 

 judges, to keep his glass on Temple Bar for the 

 mile. 



The two stallions trotted away from the wire like 

 a team. They were lapped to the head of the stretch 

 where Temple Bar made a break. Spear did not 

 make much of an effort to catch him and come on. 

 Leicester also faltered near the distance. When Gold- 

 smith picked him up to stall off Alfne he made a 

 break and the mare won. 



Notwithstanding his tired break Leicester still 

 remained favorite. He sold at two to one over the 

 field prior to the fourth heat and the money con- 

 tinued to pour in on him as long as anyone would 

 take the field end.
