CURRENT NOTES OF THE TURF. W. A. Purttschell has purchased Thesieres from Sam Louis, for his employer Al Smith of Detroit. Garnier. the French and Pelgian jockey attached to Hyams and tirundys stables at Epsom during his stay in England, has returned to France to join the army. The names Berlin. Sedan.
