miles. 1t was the blooded stallion
of James Sheridan, who lives five
miles beyond Halsey. The horse
was taken sick while here and it was
decided that he ought to be- at home
where he could receive better care.
He could not make the trip on foot,
and 80 it became necessary to haul
him on a dray. It was q hard task,
but it was accomplished without an
accident, and with apparently little
|inconvenience to the horse. The
horse cost Mr.. Sheridan $4,000 al
Spokane, last April, and he was al
together too valuable an animal to
lose. The trip, was taken in the
night, to avoid the heat. and dust
