SECKUND HEAT.
The hosses both sho signs ov distress.
The gra mare’s ears hang down the side ov her hed, like two wet rags, and the hoss rests his tale on the ground.
Tha go slola bak tew the distanse pole, and cum up agin tew the skore, az tho tha waz yoked together.
Awa tha go; the hoss a leetle ahed.
The hoss leads tew the haf mild pole in 2:30.
On the bak stretch, “Dave” went at the mare with hiz long purswader; she trots like litening, she passes the hoss! no! she busts! she busts! and befour “Dave” cud flatten her down tew her work, she broke from the trak and trotted clean up tew her hips in the krambery mash.
The hoss cum in awl alone, trotting fast, and so clus down, that 2 feet ov his tale dragged on the ground.
Time ov this heat, not fur from 5 minnits, “Juise Harp” winning, bi a quarter ov a mile.
Thus ended the grate rase at “Sulphur Flats.”
