The Worlds Hardest Horses.

The hardest breed of horses in the
world is probably that on Sable Island,
notorious for the number of wrecks
which have occurred upon it. Sable
Island, at the end of the last century,
was about forty miles long by two and
q half miles at its widest. 1t has now
been worn down to length of twenty
miles and q maximum breadth of one,
and consists Of two parallel ridges of
loose, gray sand, which grows coarse
grass and nothing else. 1t is subject
to most violent storms and the densest
of fogs, and. lying about eighty-five
miles from the coast of Nova Scotia, it
may be imagined the climate is a cold
one. The original horse stock is sup
posed to have been introduced about
the year 1913 by the Rev. A. LIE Mer-
cier, q Huguenot, who obtained leave
from the Canadian Government to try
to make this wretched spot habitable,
chiefly with the view of extending aid
to shipwrecked persons.
