DEDICATION 



TO 



FIELD MAESHAL THE MOST NOBLE 



THE MARQUIS OF ANGLESEY, 



E.G., G.C.B., G.C.H. &c, &c. 



My Lord, 



Besides returning your Lordship my most 

 grateful thanks for the high honor you have conferred 

 upon me in permitting this work to be published under 

 your sanction and patronage, I have only to add, that 

 whatever shall be found set down therein, is the result of 

 more than twenty-two years' experience and practice in 

 the Riding School, aided by a strong partiality for that 

 department of Regimental duty, to which my time and 

 attention have been most especially devoted. 



Again thanking your Lordship for the encouragement 

 you have bestowed on my humble efforts for the advance- 

 ment of a noble and useful science, and the proper training 

 and considerate treatment of a no less noble and useful 

 animal, I have the honor to subscribe myself, 



Your Lordship's 

 Most humble and obedient Servant, 



ROBERT TURNER. 



Is* July, 1851.
