Death has ridden rough shod over the ranks of these 

 rulers of the " sport of kings " of fifty years ago. 

 Truly enough do the lines of Gray in his immortal Elegy 

 apply to them 



" The boast of heraldry, the pomp of power, 



All that beauty, all that wealth ere gave, 

 Await alike the inevitable hour, 



The paths of glory lead but to the grave." 



When one reflects upon the thinned ranks of the 

 great ones of the Turf since the year of " The Dutch- 

 man's " triumph in the " Eglinton tartan," and further 

 considers that but a handful of jockeys, and certainly 

 not a racer then treading the Turf, survives in our day, 

 well may he exclaim, " Vanitas vanitatum ! "
