fewer than six horses a time and it
was quite a common sight in Milan to

behind eight superb animals. He often
drove ten in team. and used to boast
that he never had a serious miShap.
He claimed to understand the language
Of animals. and he used to pass hours
in his stables daily talking with his
horses Although very old, Valerie
enjoyed robust health, and probably
he would be alive now but for the i'm
