 him to ground on the hillside of Innes's Wood. 



To make the morning quite complete, we should have 

 dug him out and taught this cub a lesson. However, it was 

 a pretty satisfactory morning; every one, including the 

 horses, had a good sweat and one was home in time for

MAN-O'-WAR 



22,rd October, 1920 

 With cubbing in the early morning, Mrs. J. Gardner Cas- 

 satt's breakfast at Kelso at twelve-thirty, the Rose Tree 

 Races in the afternoon, and Mr. and Mrs. Riddle's supper 

 at Glen Riddle, in honor of " Man-o'-War," in the evening,

Breakfast on the terrace at Kelso was delightful; the 

 racing quite up to the Rose Tree high standard, especially

 Mr. Preece's " Son-of-a-Gun," Gerry Leiper's "Ranger," 

 Antelo Devereux's " Semper Fortis " and " Rose of Ireland,'* 

 "Bill" Clothier's "Brosseau" and "Bill Whaley," "Bint" 

 Toland's "Lakewood" and "Standpoint," Welsh Straw-

 "Buzzy" Smith's "Irish Heather," Ridgeway's "Dooley," 

 and Nelson Buckley's "Duster." 



"Wolferton II," with Tommy Wright up, finished first, 

 but was afterwards disqualified and the race given to 

 "Dooley," with second money to "Brosseau." 



After supper at Glen Riddle, and after every one had 

 had a drink from "Man-o'-War's" Canadian Gold Cup,
