1 34 AUTOBIOGRAPHY. 



BELLEVILLE, May u, 

 PROF. O. S. PRATT. 



Dear Sir : We, the undersigned, express our satisfaction 

 of the tuition we have received from you in the education of 

 the horse and most cheerfully recommend your art to all 

 who own, have or use horses, as being the best known and 

 exhibited. 



The manner in which you handled all the vicious horses 

 brought to you here, completely subduing them in a very 

 short time, gave us the greatest satisfaction. 



Your liberality and gentlemanly deportment have secured 

 numerous friends. 



Trusting you will meet with the same success in other 

 places that attended you here, and hoping you may be long 

 spared to propagate your noble system of horse training, we 

 are, etc.
