Putting a horse down single-handed.

Putting a horse down single-handed.

Although, as I before observed, the tying up of the fore-leg is not a new expedient, or even the putting a horse down single-handed, the two operations, as taught and performed by Mr. Rarey, not only subdue and render docile the most violent horses, but, most strange of all, inspire them with a positive confidence and affection after two or three lessons from the horse-tamer. How this is or why this is, Mr. Langworthy, the veterinary surgeon to Her Majesty’s stables, observed, I cannot say or explain, but I am convinced, by repeated observation on many horses, that it is a fact.
