large practice included many patients
outside the city limits. and these he
visited in his buggy.
One day Doctor Reed bought a new
horse, with which he was much
pleased until he discovered that the
animal had an insurmountable objec-
ton to bridges of all kinds, and could
not be made to cross one.
inasmuch as at that period It was
necessary to cross certain bridges In
order TO reach any one OF the sur
rounding towns. the doctor decided 70
sell the horse. He did not think II
