black whiskers,
and a man's voice, but I was
sure he knew me, and that he was Joe Green, and I was very glad. I put
my nose up to him, and tried to say that
we were friends. I never saw a man so pleased. "Give you a fair trial! I
should think so, indeed! I wonder who the rascal was
that broke your knees, my old Beauty! you must have been badly served
out somewhere; well, well, it won't be my fault if you haven't good
times of it now. I wish John Manly was here to see
you." In the afternoon I was put into a low Park chair and brought to
the door. Miss Ellen was going to try me, and Green went with her. I
soon found that she was a good driver, and she seemed pleased with my
paces. I heard Joe telling her about me, and that he was sure I was
Squire Gordon's
old "Black Beauty."
When we returned, the other sisters came out to hear how I had behaved

every day for a week
or so, and as I appeared to be quite safe, Miss Lavinia at last ventured
out in the small

close carriage. After this it was quite decided to keep me and call me
by my old name of Black Beauty. I have now lived in this
happy place a whole year. [Illustration] ***END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG
