réf. 5037HORSE RACING. ALS. 3pg. 8 x 9 . February 7 1833. New York NY. An autograph letter signed Eliza Colden to William P. Haskins of Troy New York. The letter regards a racetrack rental gone wrong. This is a very early mention of American racetracks since they were not in common use until after the Civil War. In part: I understand that Mr. Colden wrote yesterday to Mrs. Wells making an offer for the Course but at the time he did it he had no conception that Mr. Dey had gone over to the other party and rented the course to Burrs man Mr. Botts during the next Races for the trifling sum of $350. I feel hurt to think that while we were doing every thing in good faith to aid and assist and after having spent my money that we should be thus treated Mr. Dey not even thinking it worth while to mention the subject to either myself or Mr. Colden. Had Mr. Dey done his duty and got possession and you wished to have rented the property you might have got $1000 for it during next May Races. I write this letter without the knowledge of Mr. Colden in order if possible to prevent mischief which I fear it will be too late to prevent. He is outrageous and says that as the other party have acted treacherously and gone over too Burr he does not see why he should not make terms with Burr also Burr had made overtures to him which he has here to fore rejected with disdain as I am told but I now fear your will be the sufferers. Many early racetracks were operated by the rich to showcase their horses; they frequently appeared and quickly disappeared. Eliza Colder may have been related to Cadwallader Colden 1769-1834 the mayor of New York City from 1818 to 1821. Aaron Burr 1756-1836 was Vice President and the killer of Alexander Hamilton in a duel; later in life he served as a New York attorney. The letter is in fine condition with light toning and folds. unknown

Today's organized horse races as today were conducted in Izmir on 23 September 1856 for the first time. In the leadership of Evliyazade Refik Bey and the term's Consul General of England Mr. Patterson, Smyrna Races Club was founded. Izmir races were organized annually on Easter days. S.R.C. races were in their golden ages at the beginning of the 20th century and this ended with the start of 1st World War. Ottoman Jockey Club: The opinions of organizing horse races and breeding by means of jockey club in Turkey was tried to be accomplished but there is no clear knowledge on the actions of this club. According to the directory published in 1909, Grand Vizier Sait Halim Pasha was the president of the Ottoman Jockey Club. Refik Evliyazade started working for regular races to be organized in Istanbul when S.R.C races came to an end with the First World War. As a result of the support by the most powerful person of the era, Enver Pasha, Guild of Cavalryman Horse Riding Club, and Society of Improving Horse Breed were founded in 1913. Choosing Veliefendi as a racetrack coincides with the same era. Bursa Sipahi Ocagi was one of the earliest jockey and horse breeding and racing clubs in Ottoman / Turkish history. This rare booklet includes the regulations of the Bursa Sipahi Ocagi prepared in the Republican period. AH 1341 = AD 1925. Not in Özege.; Not in OCLC. Extremely rare.
