Black Beauty (26) [Black Beauty]
(13)A London cab horse
That evening, I new I was going to be happy there, Jerry's wife Polly came to see me and make friends, along with their eight-year-old daughter Dolly.
Their son Harry, who was twelve, had already been helping to groom me and their second horse, Captain.
Polly and her little girl made much of me, and it was a great treat to be petted again, and talked to in a gentle voice.
Polly thought I was very handsome and much too good to be a cab horse, if it were not for my broken knees.
" We don't know whose fault that was, " said Jerry.
" I shall give him the benefit of the doubt, for I never drove a firmer, neater stepper. "
