Show ED CORRJiAN TO START LIFE OVER KansaB City, July 30. Ed. Corrigan, former power on tho American turf, has conic back to Kansas City to start life over agaJn where ho left it more than 30 years ago. With what little he could save- from the wreck of hi fortuno after the final craah three years ago, tho former for-mer millionaire horseman leased a few acres of laud here, set up a stone crusher and has settled down to devote de-vote tho rest of his llfo to leveling the limestone cliffs the same sort of work he was doing as railroad contractor con-tractor before taking up the racing game. The former "master of. Hawthorne" now goes out to his little quarry every ev-ery morning carrying-a dinner pail, quite as contented apparently as though he had nover been one of the most Imposing figures on the world's' greatest paddocks. "It's a great little planL" he said "I've got the land hero Iease'd for ten years. I'll have 50 men working before be-fore long. I'm glad to be settled down again." fin |
