IN introducing the subject of Horse-master ship to the Officers and men of the South Irish Horse, I feel that while, as your Medical Officer from the starting of the regiment under its Old name and less onerous responsibilities, I need no introduction to any of you; still, when I stand up to talk to you of what is the most important subject to you - namely, Horse-mastership - I feel that I do need some introduction, and perhaps, apology for my presumption. Let me, however, before I approach the subject proper Of my lecture to-night, first of all thank major-general Campbell, g.o.c. The sth Division, for the very great honour he has done me and the regiment generally by his presence with us here to-night, and, having said that.

Excerpt from Horse Mastership: A Lecture With an Appendix, Including Some Notes on the Schooling of Jumpers, the Bacteriology of Coughing, and the Diseases Carried by Horse-Flies, Ticks, and Tsetse Flies Although this little book consists of a lecture originally prepared for the members of the South Irish Horse, and afterwards delivered to them and to the officers of the Dublin Garrison, it is hoped that all owners of horses will find something of interest and something that is new and useful by a careful reading of its pages. The lecturer is fortunate enough to have been able to learn some of his experience in Horse-mastership from the training of horses whose deeds have left their mark on the history of the English turf during the past few years, and as these horses are mentioned, and their trials and troubles in some cases related, it is hoped that the sporting public will find these pages not without some interest to them.
