successful instances which have come under my 

 notice. 



I may add also that I am a believer in the use 

 of the Hackney stallion for putting upon roomy 

 thorough-bred mares and cross-bred mares of 

 quality ; by mating in this manner the progeny will 

 have true action, not to be obtained by using 

 thoroughbreds. 



As to the suggestion offered by his Grace the 

 Duke of Westminster to add the word "young" 

 in the last paragraph (C), I willingly accept the 

 proposition, as my meaning is fully in accordance 

 therewith. 



In reply to Mr. Woodward I have already said 

 it is an admitted fact the true-bred English hunter, 

 hack, carriage and draught horse cannot be equalled 

 in any other part of the world ; therefore, with the 

 old stock now in the country, and the love which 

 every Englishman has for the noble animal, there is 

 no fear we can, if we choose, still hold our own.
