You
see
he
was
quite
willing
when
you
gave
him
the
chance
;
I
am
sure
he
is
a
fine
-
tempered
creature
,
and
I
dare
say
has
known
better
days
.
You
won
’
t
put
that
rein
on
again
,
will
you
?
”
for
he
was
just
going
to
hitch
it
up
on
the
old
plan
.
“
Well
,
ma
’
am
,
I
can
’
t
deny
that
having
his
head
has
helped
him
up
the
hill
,
and
I
’
ll
remember
it
another
time
,
and
thank
you
,
ma
’
am
;
but
if
he
went
without
a
check
-
rein
I
should
be
the
laughing
-
stock
of
all
the
carters
;
it
is
the
fashion
,
you
see
.
”
“
Is
it
not
better
,
”
she
said
,
“
to
lead
a
good
fashion
than
to
follow
a
bad
one
?
A
great
many
gentlemen
do
not
use
check
-
reins
now
;
our
carriage
horses
have
not
worn
them
for
fifteen
years
,
and
work
with
much
less
fatigue
than
those
who
have
them
;
besides
,
”
she
added
in
a
very
serious
voice
,
“
we
have
no
right
to
distress
any
of
God
’
s
creatures
without
a
very
good
reason
;
we
call
them
dumb
animals
,
and
so
they
are
,
for
they
cannot
tell
us
how
they
feel
,
but
they
do
not
suffer
less
because
they
have
no
words
.
But
I
must
not
detain
you
now
;
I
thank
you
for
trying
my
plan
with
your
good
horse
,
and
I
am
sure
you
will
find
it
far
better
than
the
whip
Good
-
day
,
”
and
with
another
soft
pat
on
my
neck
she
stepped
lightly
across
the
path
,
and
I
saw
her
no
more
.
“
That
was
a
real
lady
,
I
’
ll
be
bound
for
it
,
”
said
Jakes
to
himself
;
“
she
spoke
just
as
polite
as
if
I
was
a
gentleman
,
and
I
’
ll
try
her
plan
,
uphill
,
at
any
rate
;
”
and
I
must
do
him
the
justice
to
say
that
he
let
my
rein
out
several
holes
,
and
going
uphill
after
that
,
he
always
gave
me
my
head
;
but
the
heavy
loads
went
on
.
Good
feed
and
fair
rest
will
keep
up
one
’
s
strength
under
full
work
,
but
no
horse
can
stand
against
overloading
;
and
I
was
getting
so
thoroughly
pulled
down
from
this
cause
that
a
younger
horse
was
bought
in
my
place
.
I
may
as
well
mention
here
what
I
suffered
at
this
time
from
another
cause
.
I
had
heard
horses
speak
of
it
,
but
had
never
myself
had
experience
of
the
evil
;
this
was
a
badly
-
lighted
stable
;
there
was
only
one
very
small
window
at
the
end
,
and
the
consequence
was
that
the
stalls
were
almost
dark
.
Besides
the
depressing
effect
this
had
on
my
spirits
,
it
very
much
weakened
my
sight
,
and
when
I
was
suddenly
brought
out
of
the
darkness
into
the
glare
of
daylight
it
was
very
painful
to
my
eyes
.
Several
times
I
stumbled
over
the
threshold
,
and
could
scarcely
see
where
I
was
going
.
I
believe
,
had
I
stayed
there
very
long
,
I
should
have
become
purblind
,
and
that
would
have
been
a
great
misfortune
,
for
I
have
heard
men
say
that
a
stone
-
blind
horse
was
safer
to
drive
than
one
which
had
imperfect
sight
,
as
it
generally
makes
them
very
timid
.
However
,
I
escaped
without
any
permanent
injury
to
my
sight
,
and
was
sold
to
a
large
cab
owner
.
My
new
master
I
shall
never
forget
;
he
had
black
eyes
and
a
hooked
nose
,
his
mouth
was
as
full
of
teeth
as
a
bull
-
dog
’
s
,
and
his
voice
was
as
harsh
as
the
grinding
of
cart
wheels
over
graveled
stones
.
His
name
was
Nicholas
Skinner
,
and
I
believe
he
was
the
man
that
poor
Seedy
Sam
drove
for
.
I
have
heard
men
say
that
seeing
is
believing
;
but
I
should
say
that
feeling
is
believing
;
for
much
as
I
had
seen
before
,
I
never
knew
till
now
the
utter
misery
of
a
cab
-
horse
’
s
life
.
Skinner
had
a
low
set
of
cabs
and
a
low
set
of
drivers
;
he
was
hard
on
the
men
,
and
the
men
were
hard
on
the
horses
.
In
this
place
we
had
no
Sunday
rest
,
and
it
was
in
the
heat
of
summer
.
