in regard to it, than is he, and it is also the belief of those 

 best qualified to judge, that no work of this sort, heretofore 

 written, is more entitled to the confidence of, and accept- 

 ance by, the people who own trotting and pacing horses, for 

 whatever purpose they may be used. 



With this short preamble in the way of an introduction, 

 we will let Air. Moore tell his readers in his own words and 

 in his own way how to shoe a trotter or a pacer, so that it 

 may do its best work in the easiest way, and for the greatest 

 benefit to its owner.
