' Nuts! ' ' DISGUSTED HEADER." That's how I feel about the guy. He saw Gallahadion run on tne coast and he knew what the horse could do. But I'll take an oath that not once during the daze leading up to the derby did he even mention Gallahadion. except to make slighting remarks about his ability. As I said before I can't get out of Louisville. I havent' any money. Before the field went to . the post in the derby I robbed my money belt, shook that last copper out of lay pig bank, and borrod some money to bet on McLemore's unbeatable un-beatable Bimelech.
