The object of nailing should be to hold the shoe firmly to the foot without injur- ing the wall, and leave the foot as in- dependent of the le- straint of the shoe at the quarters as pos- sible. The nails should be driven where there will be most secure nail- hold; more or less as well as heavier nails being necessary, in proportion to the thickness of the wall, weight of the shoe, and severity of the work. The wall is thickest and strongest at the toe or front, and becomes thinner and more flexible toward the quarters and heels, especially so at the in- ner heels, where it is sometimes exceedingly thin and flexible. By reference to Figs. 423, 429, it wUl be seen that there is con- siderable diflference in the breadths and form of the quarters ; that of 423 is most notice- able. The end secured in this part being nar- rower and straighter, is supposed to be the prevention of interfering or striking ; luit the narrowness is com- pensated foi' by the increased height of the wall, for the purpose.
