Prom Greeland's icy mountains end
India's coral strand were the words Of
a once. familiar gospel hymn. This week
there came to Windsor a man from
Nippin. connected with the japanese
embassy at Washington. To Wind |
sor came he for the purpose Of seeing
our wonderful Morgan horses, which A.
Fullerton Phillips is rearing in the
most orthodox fashion that he is able.
II seems probable that an outsider like
the japanese envoy can see the adj
vantage Of having extra good horse
aesh a. a part Of the Oriental king
dom. So perhaps Justin Morgan's
progeny may one day sail across the
foam and take a permanent place in
the land Of the oyer-population. The
name Of the ambassador was Mr.. Tani- |
muir.
