 him a trial race with Ingomar, a Messenger horse, on a quarter-mile track, win- 

 ning the race in 2 137. He won the free-for-all race against five other horses that 

 fall at Collinsville, best time 2 134. The next fall at Bellville, St. Clair Co., he 

 won a race on an eighth of a mile track against a horse from Vermont called 

 Wide Awake or Pig Iron, in 2 138. He trotted at Carrollton for a free-for-all 

 purse of $400, and won it on a seventh of a mile track, six heats, making his 

 best time of 2 128. He was very stylish and gentle ; my wife used to drive him
