* Case 3. Decisions of the Jockey Club in the Racing Calendar for 1822.— The 

 Duke of Rutland and Mr. Wyndham, whose filly and colt ran a dead heat for 

 a sweepstakes in the Craven Rleeting this year, afterwards agreed to divide the 

 stakes ; but it being deemed necessary for one of the horses to walk over, a doubt arose 

 as to the mode of settling bets, and the following cases were submitted to the Jockey 

 Club. 1st. A. bets B. 5 gs. on the field against one of the horses which ran a dead heat ; 

 2nd. A. bets B. five to two against the other ; 3rd. A. bets B. three to one that one of the 

 horses which ran the dead heat and Augusta in the Claret stakes did not both win. The 

 stewards and members of the Jockey Club decided that in the first and second cases the 

 money betted must be put together and then di^ded equally between the parties ; and in 

 the third case, that the dead heat being the first event, the bet thereby became void,
