122 THE HORSE: ITS i'AMING, 



his owner. During the interval he has been but little 

 ridden and never in harness. The horse, as is well 

 known, had beaten all horse-breakers, and had been 

 given up as a bad job. He was bought at Hull a few 

 days ago by a London dealer, who, on learning the 

 reputation of the animal, sacrificed a portion of his 

 price money to get rid of him. By accident the 

 animal fell into the hands of a horse-hirer in Scotland, 

 who purchased him along with some other animals. 

 He w^as recognised by Mr. Galvayne, who took the 

 horse at the price paid for him, convinced that he 

 would be able to use him as he had done during the 

 time the animal had been previously in his hands. 

 Mr. Galvayne had no sooner bought the horse than 

 he put him into harness, hitched him to his buggy, 

 and started for Dundee at eleven o'clock on Wednes- 

 day night, eliciting the plaudits of a large crowd. 

 This will prove to the sceptical the permanent results 

 of the Galvayne system of taming and training. This 

 horse was afterwards sold for £S^ to a lady, who is 

 still driving him daily without the least sign of vice 

 or tricks of any kind."
