Jones has returned from Wilmington to Lewes with Lady Prettyman, a beautiful gray pacing mare. She was at one time owned by John A. Prettyman of Lewes. When a Wilmington fancier, some time ago, offered a fancy purce for Lady Prettyman she was little more than a colt and some horse fanciers thought the Wilmingtonian was foolish. Since then she has steadily gained in speed, poise and duration and now has a record of 207. This was more than the native sussex horsemen could stand, so they offered enough money to get the animal back. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ DE-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
