A setter.

This that follows is really funny. 1t is
told by a Georgia gentleman of the old
school," who is noted for his rare humor:
Il heard a good story the other day about
a horse, and must tell 1t to the children.
A man had a horse who would sit down
whenever he was touched in the flank. He
would just squat on his hind quarters like
a dog. The man tried to break him of 1t,
but he couldn't, and nobody would buy
him. One day a sportsman came along and
made his acquaintance, and they took
ride together to hunt partridges. When
they found a covey the man touched his
heels to his horses flank and he sat down.
What makes your horse do that?' said the
sportsman. Why he's setter said the
man. He sets birds just like dog So
the sportsman thought he was most won
derful horse, and he snapped for him and

gave $50 to boot And he got on him, and
after while they came to a creek that
was pretty deep, and as the sportsman
held up his legs to keep them out Of the
water he touched the horse in the flank,
and down he sat in the water. When he
got him up and out and was all dripping
wet he was as mad as a wet hen and said |:
We'll, sir what made this horse do that
way in the waterr I forgot to tell you,
said the man, that he sets fish just as we'll
as he does BIRDS"
