DAPV PATCH PACES HIS LAST.
Coming down the stretch at
t Asricultural Park, his four legs,
i which have carried him to so
manv victories, working: like well
oiled vision roads, Dan Patch
(1.50,} the world's premier pacer,
brought the large crowd to its
u feet when he stepped the final
quarter in 31 1-4 seconds, says the
1 Baltimore American. It wa?
v Dan's heart, and not his legs,
which carried him around those
eight furlongs, for when the champion
of champions was led to the
judge's stand to receive the wreath
of flowers which the T.os Angeles
Driving Club hung about his
glossy neck, he limped badly.
UUl U1W1C wan oifiu VL iawv
ness when the thfoughbred, whose
name is almost a household word,
flashed by the quarter, the half,
the three-quarters and finally
turned into the itretch, the galloping
pacemaker having all he
coufcTubvto keep abreast of the
rapidly moving pacer.
The time was not fast. It did
not come within 13 seconds of that
negotiated by his stable mate,
Minor Heir, 1.59 1-4, a few minutes
later. But the vast throng
of persons recognized the curtain
call of a top-notcher, and they responded
as an American crowd always
does.
There was something almost
pathetic in the way the horse, perhaps
not realizing that he had
gone his last mile before an admiring
rrnwrl limn^rl tn thp inri
ges' stand. What if he did try to
nibble the flowers when the wreath
was hung about his neck? The
laugh which rippled through the
crowd only helped to mark Dan's
final public appearance with a
tinge of sadness. Blanketed and
with the wreath still around his
neck, the great horse, an animal
which money could not buy, was
led from the track whereon he
had paced his last mile. The
grand stand was still echoing
witlr applause when the champion
had disappeared from view
among the stables.
