HERBERT GRAY 



Herhert Gray was born in York, Me., 

 in 1850, and attended the schools of North 

 Berwick, Me. When twenty years old he 

 opened a livery stable in North Berwick, but 

 soon sold it and in 1872 came to Boston to 

 run the Merrimac House. He is now en- 

 gaged in the real estate business in Haver- 

 hill, Mass. He belongs to the Haverhill 

 Lodge of Elks. 



Air. Gray was manager of the Thomas W. 

 Lawson racing stable from 1900 to 1904, dur- 

 ing which time lie purchased over $400,000 

 worth of trotters for the great copper mag- 

 nate. This included several stallions and 

 brood mares, which were used in stocking 

 the famous Dreamwold Farm, in Scituate. 

 Mass., which has since become celebrated 

 for its beauty. 



Among the trotters which Mr. Gray 

 bought for the Dreamwold racing stable 

 were Boralma, 2 :o7 ; Mamie W. (3), 2:17 1-4 ; 

 Dreamer (3). 2:14 1-4; Oxford Boy (2), 2:20; 

 Glory, 2:11 1-2; Sagwa, 2:13 1-4, etc. Un- 

 der Mr. Gray's management of four years 

 the Dreamwold stable won every big stake 

 in the Grand Circuit, excepting the M. & M. 

 Boralma won the three-year-old Kentucky 

 Futurity, and the Transylvania, being one 

 of the few horses to have the honor of tak- 

 ing both events. Oxford Boy headed the 

 summary of the two-year-old Kentucky 

 Futurity. Georgena, 2:07 1-2, also under his 

 management, won the classic Charter Oak 

 stake. Previous to Dreamwold being in 

 readiness for the wintering of horses, they 



cated at 22 Barnes St., Dorchester, where 

 he has been for twenty-three years in the 

 stable business, selling, buying, "boarding of 

 horses, and contracting. Mr. Gallup was one 

 of the three that organized the Dorchester 

 Gentlemen's Driving Club in 1899, and has 

 served the club on the board of directors and 

 racing committee. He also belongs to the 

 Odd Fellows. 



Mr. Gallup has two distinctions that will 

 likely never be beaten. One is that in the en- 

 tire existence of the Dorchester Club he has 

 missed only one of its weekly meetings, and 

 that through sickness, and the other is in get- 

 ting 260 new members for the club in three 

 years, 21 1 of them during President Newbert's 

 administration. 



He has raced ever since the club was or- 

 ganized, never missing a season from the mat- 

 inees, and in all that time he has not refused a 

 match, and always raced his horses where 

 they were placed by the racing committee. 



Among the numerous horses that Mr. Gal- 

 lup has owned and driven can be brought to 

 mind, Ashmont, that was his first trotter, and 

 which he still owns though he is now over 

 twenty years of age ; Celia, which he bought at 

 auction for $100, and without a day's han- 

 dling she stepped a quarter at Readville in 2- 

 seconds. After being used by Mr. Gallup for 

 several years, she was sold again under the 

 hammer and brought very near her original 

 price. 



Bob Fitz, 2:17 1-4, was another of the 

 old reliables, as were Rubsley G, 2:16 1-2; 

 Queenie, trial, 2:201-4; Axtelloid, 2:151-4; 

 Judge Green, 2:09, that held the world's rec- 

 ord for a four-year-old gelding in 1903 ; Cris- 

 pin, with the speed capacity of quarters in 

 30 seconds ; and Matt M. 



Earl King, bred by the railroad magnate, 

 E. H. Harriman, and sired by Stamboul, 2:11, 

 dam Gipsey Earl, by The Earl, was very fast 

 as a three-year-old, when he was trained by
