These successes bring Smith’s winnings at track racing during the last seven years to a total of about £200 in prize money.

The afternoon was spent in touring the dales around Buxton including Monsal Dale where a halt was called for tea. A pleasant return journey was made along the Derwent via Grindleford. Fox House and Sheffield.
