3o6 M anagement and Treatment of the Horse. 



In conclusion, I have to thank all those gentle- 

 men who by their kindness to me have enabled 

 me to quote so much from their writings for the 

 information of my readers, and above all, I hope to 

 pay a life-long tribute to the memory of the late 

 Sir Thomas Moncrieffe, who encouraged me as a 

 boy in my studies with the solicitude of a tender 

 father and friend, and but for him I should not 

 have been able to sign myself, 



Yours faithfully, 



WM. PEOCTEE 



The Stud Groom.
