MOODLAW TO ARKLETOX. 383 



for a big dog, and always ran with 'fire. He fairly 

 galloped over and ran down Portsea in the last 

 course but one for the Waterloo Cup, for which 

 Mr. Hedley, a relation of Mr. Jardine^s, trained 

 him. Clive had not his brilliant dash. She was a 

 low-running bitch, and went clean away from 

 Antipas in the fourth ties for the Waterloo.^^ 



In a private trial before the Cup, Selby beat her, and 

 carried the money of the party. Clive only lost one 

 course out of twenty-two, and that was with Mr. 

 Gibson^s Lassie in the Caledonian St. Leger. She 

 was very easily prepared, and ran at 591bs. ; and at 

 Biggar she divided the St. Leger wdth Mr. Borron^s 

 Black Knight, who got the bye when she met Cardi- 

 nal York. This was once a great stake with Mr. 

 Jardine, as his dog Terrona^ divided it the next 

 year with Canaradzo ; then his Faldonside and Crerer 

 divided; and on the following year his Otterburn 

 was beaten in his fourth course by Sea Foam. Mr. 

 Jardine has been a courser for twenty years, and 

 yet he was never near a Waterloo Cup except when 

 he divided it with one of his own breeding. Since 

 then he has been second for the Plate with Faldon- 

 side and Owersby, and his Miss Hannah won it for 

 Mr. Marjoribanks. 



And so we hied on our way back through Ewes- 

 dale, viewed " Terrona^^ once more at the distance 

 as happy as a cricket among his mares and foals, and 



* This clog was lent to Mr. Jardine by Lord Jolin Scott wlien he ran at 

 Biggar, and his lordship left especial directions before his death that ilr. 

 Jardiae should keep him.
