« — — . The travelling correspondent of the Referee send the following notes to that paper : — Mr Dalrymple, of Parawanui, has purchased from Mr David Lincl, of Wanganui, a splendid looking hunter, by Patriarch, for £60. The horse stands about 15.2, and it would be hard to find a better looking gentleman's hack. Those in a position to" give an opinion. state the same horse would bring 800gs at Home. Mr D. Scott, of Rangitikei, has sold Dingo . (Remington — Cornelia) . to Mr H. Knight, who formerly trained Gunner and Outer in Wanganui. Dingo will be trained at Hastings. Mr T. M'Kenzie, of Carnarvon, has sold his well* known hunter by. Hotchkiss to Mr Rhodes, of Hawke's . Bay. I understand that Mr Tilley's ; nomination of Strephon was declined [ by the Otaki Hack Racing Club for \ the reason that he had received ! second money in " racehorse" com \ pany. The races under this Club are open to all horses that have i never won an advertised stake, aud if ' Strephon's nomination is declined, Unity and Fortune are not qualified to start, as they have received second money in other than hack races. Mr Duncan Rutherford has sent a framed photo of the oil painting of Ahua to Mr D. Scott, of Rangiiikei, the former owner of the game little nil-round son of The Painter and Cornelia.
