128 SPORT AND TRAVEL PAPERS 



when we dismounted at the door of Hoza Concordia our long 

 ride was over. The horses had had more than enough but our 

 friend Augustin was well satisfied. 



We arrived at Yautepec one hundred and eighty-eight hours 

 after leaving Acapulco ; of these we had spent eighty-six and 

 three-quarters actually in the saddle, journeying over one 

 hundred and five leagues, or three hundred and fifteen miles, 

 at the rate of three and two-third miles an hour. Next day, 

 by the very slowest train it is possible to imagine, we arrived in 

 Mexico city in the afternoon.
