IN Consequence of the many fatal Accidents which have happened by Horses running too near the Posts, the STEWARDS of NEWMARKET RACES have caused the large and fixed Posts on the Heath to be surrounded with Turf-banks, about Five Feet in the Base, and sloping to the Post, at the Height of about Four Feet; and in other Parts of the Course, particularly where there are Turns, they have adopted the Use of slender Posts that will break on any strong Pressure, which they earnestly recommend to the Notice of Stewards and Managers of Races in general. PUBLIC ONE HUNDRED GUINEAS REWARD. NEWMARKET, JULY 13, 1809. WHEREAS, from the sudden death of two Horses, and the illness of several others, which drank out of a trough belonging to J. Stevens, stablekeeper, at Newmarket, there are strong grounds of suspicion that some POISON had been thrown into the water. This is to give Notice, that whoever will discover the Person or Persons guilty of such heinous offence, so that he, she, or they, may be brought to justice, shall, upon conviction, receive ONE HUNDRED GUINEAS. And whoever shall reveal any circumstances which may tend to such discovery, will also be handsomely rewarded, by applying to Mr. Weatherby, Newmarket.
