The strangest part of the history of the unbeatable champion sprinter, Hallaton. is that it was by the merest chance that he ever carried colors under the Bubs of Racing. Ho wont to Whatcombe to be prepared for a steeplechase at Aldershot after lie lifld followed hounds for a couple of seasons. As luck would nave it. he met with an accident shortly before the engagement fell duo. and it was not until be resumed work tliat his marvelous sjieed came to the knowledge of Mr. Dawson.

Wootton has recovered the ground he lost some time ago ami is riding in capital form again.
