All through the centuries the kings and queens, princes and rulers have been lovers of horses, and most of them made efforts to improve the stock, not onlv for military work; but also for hunting, racing, pleasure, rid- ing and driving. Alfred the Great passed a law forbidding the export of horses from Britain, excepting for ‘m frnmd a sturdy little army. very fit. and equally well horsed with his own m'oud lezrions. The formidable scythed war chariots of the Britons. drawn by active horses full of fire and admirably disciplined, were driven by giant fairâ€"haired war- riors with their garments cast aside and their bodies glistening: with the blue dyes obtained from wild plants. Thev r-nf annnlline‘ roads through the (Treat lines of Roman foot soldiers, but. of course, were outnumbered by the vast host. Caesar was so im- nressed with their valor, their horses and horsemanship that.’on his return to Rome, he was careful to carry with him some of their horses to mix with his own. also taking some of the British drivers to teach discipline to the Roman charioteers. It is only conjecture as to what these horses were that Caesar admired so much and that were soon sought after throughout the Roman Empire, but they were quite likely the out- come of crossing the small, hardy horses, indigenous to Britain, with the Barbs or Arabs. brought by the Car- thaginians anfl Phoenicians in their trading ships,’ when they came to the Island to barter for tin and other commodities. History shows that from the beâ€" winning the people of Englnd have been great lovers of horses, and that. when Julius Caesar landed on the here of Britain in the year 55 BC. l Living a the poet did in the reign of Queen Eilizabeth, he, as holder of a Grant of Arms, would be compelled to honor the law put in force by Henry VIII and keep several stck horses on his estates at Stratford-onâ€" Avon. I have no doubt that the poet had one of the finest of these trotters so beloved by the people of England for hundreds of years, considering where he lived, so close to Norfolk, the greatest center for the breeding of Hackneys. The Bard’s allusion to the lovely Jennet, “Lusty, young and proud.” would indicate the ownership of some of the beautiful Spanish horses which had been imported by a former king and which are described as “small of stature, and in their travelle they neede not be quickened with the spurres.” The remark regarding “The colt that’s backed and bur- thened, being young, Loseth his pride and waxeth strong” is further evidence that this wonder- ful man did not spend all of his time in studying human nature in its moods and tenses. The Wars of the Roses having de- pleted the stock of cavalry, troop and other war horses in England, an Act was passed in 1535-6 in which it was stipulated that every archbishop, duke, marquis, earl and wealthy bishop must keep at least five trotting stallions; viscounts and Wealthy barons three such animals; 195s wealthy persons two trotters: while every person who lived in comparative luxury and who kept at least one riding horse for pleasure, and Whose wife could dress in velvet or wear a gold chain, must perforce maintain one trotting stal- lion for the saddle. bone” could onlv have been sn written by a proud owner about a servant and friendâ€"Whom he had seen with his eyes and felt With his hands.

HORSE LOVERS OF HISTORY Shakespeare 'oad buttock traight THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO nd “I was standing on the Castle Hill in the midst of a fair of horses. An old man draws nigh: he is mounted on a lean pony, and he leads by the bridle one of these animals (horses): nothing very remarkable about that creature, unless in being smaller than the rest and gentle, which they are not: he is not of the sightliest look: he is almost dun and over one eye a thick film has gathered. But stay, there is something remarkable about that horse, there is something in his action in which he differs from all the rest. As he advances the clamour is hushed. All eyes are turned upon himâ€"what looks of interestâ€"of re- spectâ€"and, what is this? People are taking off their hatsâ€"surely not to that steed. Yes, verily, men, espec- ially old men, are taking off their hats to that one-eyed steed, and I hear more than one deepâ€"drawn, ‘ah.’ In the reign of William III, the ‘ Byerly Turk made his appearance, and ‘in the reign of Quoen Anne and her ,consort, Prince George of Denmark. imany valuable Arabian and Barb horses were imported, most noted of ‘which was the Barley Arabian, the {horse that did more than any other horse to improve and influence the light breeds for all time. This horse Was foaled in 1706 and imported to England for John Brewster Darley, Alby Park, Yorkshire. He was the sire of the phenomenal race horse, Flying Childers, and Bartlett’s Child- ers, who was the ancestor, through Snuirt and Marske, of the famous Eclinse. Both Flying Childers and Bartlett’s Childers were bred and owned by Leonard Childers. Visa” Carr House, Doncaster. From these ‘famous sires came most of the thor- loughbreds. But breeding was not confined to these lines alone. There were also the horses bred from the Spanish for heavy work; the Hobby, Jennet and the Galloway for women and for short journeys: but the real horse of the people of England for the army, the hunt, and the long journevs the horse that could cultivate the lanrJ and carry the master or his wife (0“ both) to town, was the Norfolk Hackâ€" ney (or Haquenee, the name the Norâ€" mans gave them), which name was adopted into the English language in AD. 1303. There were the horses beloved by the people for their speed, stamina, endurance, style, and their cheerful and docile dispositions. They were sometimes called Trotters for their great speed at that gait over long distances, and were often matched against time or against other horses for wagers or prizes, the ordinary distances being from six to one hun- dred miles (one mare being ridan one hundred miles in eleven hours) or the match against time being so many miles to the hour. Many of them could do fifteen or sixteen miles in less than an hour, Marshland Shales trotting seventeen :miles in fiftyâ€"eight minutes on the Lynn road, carrying one hundred and eighty- nine pounds. He was a chestnut horse, 14.3, foaled in 1802. a direct descendant through the male line, of Shales the Original, Blaze, Flying Childers and the Darley Arabian. George Borrow, born at East Dere- ham in Norfolk, traveller and writer, immortalized Marshland Shales in his autobiographical novel, “Laveng'ro,” and the following excerpt from his book shows what the countrymen thought of this really wonderful horse, then thirty years of age. and a real horsewoman and was in the habit of riding among her soldiers, encouraging them to deeds of valor in the defence of England against the King of Spain. She loved the chase and hunted the stag on horseback when she was seventy-seven years of age. Charles II bred fine horses, and he sent his “Master of Horse” to Bar- bary to purchase both stallions and brood mares, the latter being the fam- ous Royal mares, supposed to be the last word in equine blue blood and registered in the English Thorough- bred Stud Book. | horses were brought in durlng the reign of Edward III, safe convey be- ing granted by the kings of Spain and France for fifty stallions. These horses were mixed with the smaller English breeds to get the tall, bony, showy horses for the knights in ar- mor, and it is said that the Shire breed are really their descendants. Alexander, King of Scotland, pre- sented. the first reputed Arabian horse in England, together with its costly trappings, to the Church of St. Andrews, which, to say the least, indicated a decidedly sporting ten- dency in both the giver and the re- ceivers.

This show was a great success, being honored by the presence of H.R.H. the Prince of Wales and H.R.H. the Princess of Wales (Kind Edward VII and Queen Alexandra) and their family, besides an attendance of the public which much exceeded expectations. The blood lines of the sires of these Hackney horses had been carefully kept, but there was no authentic record of the dams until the nine- teenth century, when the Hackney Stud Book Society of England was formed to preserve and record the pedigrees of these horses, which were dclai‘ed to be of “high value and great use.” In 1884 the first volume of the Stud Book was produced, with recording of eight hundred and eighty stallions of pure Hackney blood, dat- ing from 1755 to 1881, inclusive. At this show there was a grand total of one hundred and eighty-two Hackneys, of which no fewer than ninety-five were stallions; such a col- lection of all the best known horses of the day as had never been seen be- fore. In examining the awards it is recorded that Reality, sired by Con- fidence 158, won his class over twenty- ‘eight entries ; Lord Derby II Won his Marshland Shales had a. famous contemporary, who was closely re- lated to him, in Jarry’s Bellfounder 55, that was born in 1816. This horse could also trot very fast, but, as he was exported to America in 1822, he did not get very much of a chance to make a great name for his speed. However, he did make a great name for himself in America, being the sire of the Charles Kent mare, the dam of Hambletonian 10, who is con- sidered the head of the great family of Standard breds. Bellfounder was a direct descendant in tail male of Shales the Original. All the best Show Hackney horses and ponies carry this same blood in their veins, and, while the blood of their dams has come down for hundreds of years un- heralded, the sires can be traced directly to the wonderful Darley Arabian. Marshland Shales did a great deal of good to the Hackney breed, as the pedigrees of the best Hackneys are full of his descendants, but chiefly through the dams. The great Hack- ney horse Denmark also had more honor through his daughters than his sons. Marshland Shales was not a remarkably high stepper, though he bent his knees well, but, as they used to say in Norfolk, he was a. “thunder- ing trotter” and apt to throw dirt in the eyes of those who, of necessity, came behind him. In his many‘trials as a trotter he was never beaten, and he was acknowledged to_be the speed- iest and stoutest trotter of his time. He lived to be thirty-three years old, having spent his lift; in Lincolnshire. Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex, contrib- uting richly to the prosperity of these counties through the sale of his val- uable progeny. said the very old man, taking a knob- bed stick from his mouth, and looking me in the face, at first carelessly, but presently with something like inter- est: ‘he is old, like myself, but can still trot his twenty miles an hour. You won’t live long, my swain: tall and overgrown ones like these never does, yet if you should chance to reach my years you may boast to thy great grand boys thou hast seen Marshland Shales.’ “Amain I did for the horse what I would neither do for earl or baron, doffed my hat: yes, I doffed my hat to the wondrous horse, the fastest peated the words of the old fellows around: ‘Such a horse as this we shall never see again, a pity that he is so old’.i’ I trotter, the best in mother Englanc and I, too, drew a deep ‘ah’ and 1‘( 1nd thi 10% with orders, balance arrival.

The great champion harness mare, Seaton Pippin, who has held the high» est place in America for five years and who was retired from the ShOW ring at the last National Horse Show, was sired by Marlboro, a son of Math- ias, while her dam was Phosphate by Polonius. Marlboro was imported from England by the late Judge Moore, who also imported another son of Mathias, Lord Hermoine, now owned by T. A. Crow, on Toronto. To see the beautiful Hackney horses and ponies dressed for show in all. their pride and quality, going great guns putting on all their finest airs, it is readily understandable that the choicest of blue blood percolates through their veins, and that_they are. not the product of a few years but many centuries of careful and Wise selection. with the addition of Sir George (778), the great pony site, are still, after over half a century of scientific anti careful selection and elimination, the greatest prize-Winners of the day.
