I'm plaguy sorry I let put that countersign of Old Clay too, but they won't onderstand it.

Critters like the English, that know everything have generally weak eyes, from studyin' so hard.
"Did you take notice of that critter I was a handlin' of, Squire?
that one that's all drawed up in the middle like a devil's darnin' needle; her hair a standin' upon eend as if she was amazed at herself, and a look out of her eye, as if she thort the dogs would find the steak kinder tough, when they got her for dinner.

Well, that's a great mare that 'are, and there ain't nothin' onder the sun the matter of her, except the groom has stole her oats, forgot to give her water, and let her make a supper sometimes off of her nasty, mouldy, filthy beddin'.

I hante see'd a hoss here equal to her a'most--short back, beautiful rake to the shoulder, great depth of chest, elegant quarter, great stifle, amazin' strong arm, monstrous nice nostrils, eyes like a weasel, all outside, game ears, first chop bone and fine flat leg, with no gum on no part of it.

She's a sneezer that; but she'll be knocked down for twenty or thirty pound, because she looks as if she was used up.
"I intended to a had that mare, for I'd a made her worth twelve hundred dollars.
