He lives In the village of Webb's Mills In Casco count. He Is known nil over his section of the state us a swift tiav eler. who piefei.s his own excellent legs to tiding behind a pair of hois-s or usttide one of them. He thinks nothing of a inn of twen ty or thlttv miles, and can cover the distune In a few houis and without stopping to rest. He iiins all the way up hill the same us on the plain, anil when the dl.stnnce is covered he hi enthes but little deeper than when he staited. and Is seldom known to peisplie. Mi Welch has lived at Webb's .Mills all his Ule He Is tall, well-piopui-tloned and weighs about 170 pounds. He does most of his tunning foi the enjoyment of It He Is eccenttlc In his habits, and when the "notion to take a tilp sttlkes him he stalls, be the time day or night On a trip to the White .Mountains his favoilte dog staited to accompan him, but died of exhaustion on the wai. Some time ago Welch won a nice of twenty miles against a span of hotse-s di I ven by C. G. Jepson The i ace stai t ed at Havmond Village and ended nt the ptlnclpal stieet cenuer In Poit land. Welch was an easy winner al though Mr. Jepson uiged his hotses to their gieatest speed, and they were eoveied with foam when they renched Portland. Welch was apparently as fresh as when he staited and seemed to be able to make a run of twice the distance Though he has phenomenal speed and endurance. Welch Is not u succea In a race. Some eats ago he enteied a twelve-hour race In a link and took fouith luonev, with GP4 mlle.s to his ci edit. The shouts of the spectators unne-yed him und he could not hear to bo ctowded. When other contestants came near hhn he weiuld leavu the tmck and lun along outside, which made the distance he had to cover consldeiably gieatei. Welch feels his superiority- to tho hiime, but ho admits that the bleyclo c-nn beat him As he tensely puts it. ho was "not bom Into this world to raco with any such new-fangled ma- i'iiiiic-a ua incye-ies unu trolley cars," Hut he confidently believes that he can bent any hoi so In a distance mco of from twenty to llftv miles.
