Mile Walk Handicap
Mile Walk Handicap.
G. M. Hogben, 100yds. 1; H. G. R. Mason, 300yds. 2; J. M. Hogben, ser. 3. | |
Time, 8 min. 25 sec. | Five starters. |
This race, as was the case last year, provided considerable excitement—not to say amusement. Mason started off at a steady pace and led until within five yards of the tape. In the last lap, however. G. M. Hogben put on a great spurt and won by the narrowest of margins from Mason, who finished smiling. J. M. Hogben ran a good third.
