   a- Mr. Van Vorthog was a sportsman who liked hunting without hazardous risk.
   b- One day a deep ford crossed his path. He did not at all like the look of it.
   c- So he bribed a boy to ride his horse over, whilst he himself crossed by the adjacent footbridge.
   d- But alas! the plank was slippery and the hand rail rotten.
   e- Mr. V. V. emerged to find his horse disappearing  "'e's running away ! I can't stop im mister!" shouted the boy.
   f- The grey never had such a bucketing in his life.
   g- Some three hours later his owner found him - dead lame & dead beat.
   h- By the time he had arrived home that night Mr. V. V. came to the conclusion that the pleasures of foxhunting are considerably over rated.

Condition is Very Good.
