CHAPTER XXV A HAPPY HORSE
9/25

It is shameful the way horses are used up in big cities.

Our pavements are so bad that cab horses are used up in three years.

In many ways we are a great deal better off in this new country than the people in Europe, but we are not in respect of cab horses, for in London and Paris they last for five years.

I have seen horses drop down dead in New York just from hard usage.

Poor brutes, there is a better time coming for them though.
