IVhen Boston's Best Sons Met 293 



Bachelor, a six-year-old, with 1 1 3 pounds, had 

 run in 7.16^. 



Who were Lucretia Borgia and The Bachelor ? 

 Lucretia ran no longer ago than 1897, and The 

 Bachelor galloped so recently as 1899. And 

 not upon the tongues of men are the names of 

 either of these, and the gentlemen now living 

 who sat at their business of enthusiasm on this 

 night down in New Orleans probably could not 

 now call to mind such existences as Borgia and 

 The Bachelor.
