TESTIMONY (Rez.)

THE NORTH

"The horse was used to the city and gentle.
He had often stood near the door of his owner
in the business part of the city, unhitched,
with drays and other vehicles constantly passing.
He had life, was restless and high-strung, fancy and stylish,
but quite sensible;
would pick up your handkerchief
and at his stall fondle you.
Under the saddle he was hard to handle
but in harness was tender of mouth
and easily managed:
he had been driven up to--and past--a locomotive
at a crossing
and had gone quietly, attached to the buggy,
with a railroad train passing from behind."
