MY QUEST OF THE ARAB HORSE 



was as fresh as ever, and did not even lose his 

 appetite. That, I think, is a pretty good test 

 for the Arab horse, and proves him to be 

 adapted to the most exacting work in the 

 roughest country, for it is almost impossible to 

 have imagined what he would have done if he 

 had been a much younger horse. He is to-day 

 in superb condition, and during Christmas hol- 

 idays I drove him in a sleigh, where he showed 

 great speed."
