75THE UMPIRE SUNDAY, APRIL 22, 1888. The challenge we published last week, in which a gentleman named Goodall wished to contest ten miles on the racecourse with English horses against Buffalo Bill's ponies, has met with a response.

Dear Sir,-Having succeeded, through the kindness of Mr. Mark Price and the racecourse authorities, in securing the grounds for the proposed race between your English-bred horses and my American ponies, I accept your proposition. The terms the same as you suggested-namely, for [British pound]200, the same number of horses for a ten mile contest-riders to to change every half-mile. While my ponies are the ordinary cattle ponies of the Far West, I think the experiment will be one of great interest.-I am, respectfully yours, W. F. CODY (Buffalo Bill), | 75 |
