"The usual enthusiasm over the arrival of a victorious 

 team was turned into an ovation for the popular 

 and plucky little Scotchman. In spite of the loss 

 of the best dog in the kennel on the eve of the race, 

 and having been knocked senseless in the trail, 

 he was still winner of the Solomon Derby, and he 

 gave the credit of it all to Baldy!"
