TIME CARD.

OLDEST LIVIE JOCKEY

Will Celebrate His 116th Birthday Soon. Memphis, Tenn., Feb. 17. Alston Gibson, known to be the oldest living jockey in the world, will call on horsemen and turf followers in general to make his HGth birthday a success. The records in Tennessee turf annals show that Gibson rode Gen. Andrew Jackson's famous horse, Truxtony early in the nineteenth century, when that horse beat Irving 's Plowboy in a match race for $5,000, two mile heats, over the famous old ante-bellum course near Nashville. It is related that the controversy that followed the result of that race precipitated the duel that followed be

tween Generals Jackson and Dickin

son. -

Gibson is spending his final days

at Calera, Ala., where, with his wife, who is herself past SO years, in idleness. He is supported by citizens of

Calera and a call has been made to

9 the turf fraternity to assist in mak-.

ing wThat may be the old mane's final birthday a success. If Gibson lives to see the next Fourth of July he will have seen the nation's birthday celebrated 116 times, for it was on July 4, 1788, that he was born in a little hamlet in South Carolina. He has ridden in races in the presence of United States Presidents nt the ante-bellum-course near Alexandria, where "George Washington is recorded in history as having acted as judge. Gibson had retired from the saddle long before such stars as Billy Lakeland and Snapper Garrison took up riding. After his turf days, Gibson formed an acquaintance with Davy Crockett, and ventured in poineer trips with Daniel Boone. He Avas one of the party that avenged the death of Davy Crockett in the battle of Jacinto that followed the slaughter of the Alamo inmates, and there are many other incidents in his life that are borne out by history. His age is Aouched for by the best citizens of Calera, who have searched the records in the Fairfield district of South Carolina. In addition, there is documentary evidence in Gibson's possession that bears him out. He is almost blind now, and verv feeble.
