. Hound and horn in Jedforest : being some experiences of a Scottish / by T. Scott Anderson ; illustrations by G. Denholm Armour. emember our friend here had a con-venient turn of lumbago last year, and gave me theprivilege of first ride, he went on, seeing Battersleave the stable for a moment; * but I did not seemuch stiffness about him as he ran to catch herafter she had disposed of me. The other is this one, one of that rare sort,anybodys horse, a very pleasant ride, an absolutelysafe conveyance, a perfect fencer, and never sickor sorry; but, as Batters says, sair afQickit wiwant o speed. This old arm-chair rather spoils the look ofthese three blood-like chasers, said Billy to Batters,who had come back. Mebbe she diz that, Captain Willyum, but shesyin o the kind ye whiles read aboot but dinna aftensee, an she can mak fules o some o the faster kind ;an whats mair, with a very steady and directglance at his master, shes a yuisfu kind for asnawy day. Thereupon I made a mental note that whether Iwished it or not, Old Safety would have to remainin the Hunt stable. Yell never think o pairtin wi the auld horse, sir,. ?t— HOW THE NEWS CAME 9 continued Batters, after Bill had run his hand overold Royals tendons and pinched his suspensoryligament, and had observed, * He stands over abit more than I thought, and that flat foot doesntimprove, and he is a bit impetuous in a crampedcountry, is he not? * Put him away ! Rather not. Bill. Theres somethree or four years genuine work in him yet, and heand I will never part. The * Pearl here is another of the same, but faster,and has the advantage of youth, though shes not socareful where she puts her feet as I should like. Whats this, Master? as we came to a littlethick dark-brown mare, with well-turned quarters,muscular thighs, and good straight hocks. * Thats the Omega mare. Bill, only rising fiveyears old, active and clever as a kitten, but hasa litUe to learn yet, and has rather too much actionfor a hunter. Shaell neve
