Childcrs would have been a fool to him* 

 But he had wings, indeed, which perhaps 

 may be more ufeful than hind-legs, otherwife I 

 could not have conceived it. 



That there are horfes of this kind in na- 

 ture I make no doubt ; as the Lords of the 

 Admiralty authorife us to believe it, by ex- 

 hibiting two in the front of their Houfe of 

 Office at Whitehall. To thefe horfes Mary 

 Jenkins's feems to be nearly allied ; and per- 

 haps by enquiring at the Admiralty we may 

 be inform 'd where they may be had. As we 

 lye on the great North Road, I Ihould fup- 

 pofe this, that came through our town, might 

 be what they call a fea-horfe, and come from 

 Lapland or thereaways . 



If you can throw any light on this wonderful 

 phaenomenon. Sir, I hope you will make it pub- 

 lic for the good of the community. 

 I am. Sir, 



'Your humble Servant, 



William Gorget, 

 Surgeon.
