A Living Beauty

'There are a great many kinds of animals; there are good, thoughtful animals like Cookie here, that any master is happy to be served by, but there are cruel, bad animals, who never ought to have a master to call their own. besides, there are great many foolish animals, vain, ignorant, and careless, who never trouble the,selves to think; these spoil more horses then all, just for what of sense; they don't mean it, but they do it for all that. I hope you will fall into good hands; but a girl never knows who may take here, or who may take her away;'it is all a chance for you and the others, but still I say, do your best, wherever it is, and keep up your good name.'
