VI PREFACE. 



remarks on Australia and South Africa. The entire 

 work has been rewritten, and the matter contained 

 is the result of my own personal observations during 

 eighteen years' service in India and the colonies at 

 both military and civil duties.

PEEFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. 



THE following notes on Stable Management were 

 originally delivered in a lecture to the Officers, Non- 

 Commissioned Officers, and Troopers of the Punjab 

 Light Horse, and as they were considered by the 

 members of the corps to be useful, at their request 

 I have put them on paper. There is no attempt at 

 anything beyond the most elementary rudiments of 

 horse-keeping in India, and all they are intended 

 for is to give volunteers of mounted corps, who have 

 not previously owned horses, some slight idea as to 

 what should be done for the care of their chargers, 

 and not leave them entirely in the hands of native 

 syces and horse-keepers.
